Exam 6: Cell Signaling and the Hormonal Responses to Exercise

Muscle glycogen breakdown is stimulated by the catecholamines. It is also stimulated by

While hormones circulate to all tissues, some affect only a few tissues. This is due to the

The decrease in plasma volume and the increase in the osmolality of the plasma during exercise results in _________________ in antidiuretic hormone.

If the thyroid gland does not produce a sufficient amount of T₃ or T₄, the resting metabolic rate will

During exercise, epinephrine and norepinephrine stimulate liver glycogenolysis indirectly by

Which of the following hormones is secreted from adipose tissue?

Even though the concentration of insulin decreases during exercise, the muscle can still take up large quantities of plasma glucose. This is due, in part, to the recruitment of more glucose transporters.

Which of the following is a hormone that is secreted by the adrenal medulla?

Which of the following hormones is part of the General Adaptive Syndrome and is called the "stress" hormone?

The mobilization of free fatty acids from adipose tissue and glucose from liver glycogen would be stimulated by

The changes in the plasma concentration of most of the hormones during maximal exercise would stimulate fatty acid mobilization from adipose tissue. The plasma-free fatty acid concentration, however, actually decreases. Why does this occur?
