Stimulus → receptor → coordinator → effector → response
Why do hormones work over a long period of time?
They take a long time to reach the target organ
Once they are released they stay forever
They have an effect until their action is completed and they are broken down
What type of neurone transmits electrical signals within the central nervous system?
How does the pituitary gland affect thyroxine levels? - Higher
By releasing thyroxine from the adrenal gland
By releasing TSH
By breaking it down as it passes through the gland in the blood
Which of these is not an example of negative feedback? - Higher
