  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The main mineralocorticoid seen in human is
    Solution
    Mineralocorticoids are the class of corticosteroids which regulate the water and electrolyte balance of body. Aldosterone is main mineralocorticoid that serves to stimulate renal absorption of sodium ions, excretion of potassium and thereby increasing the reabsorption of water by kidneys. This makes option D correct. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Oxytocin and vasopression are examples of 
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    I am ductless gland. I secrete chemicals which are transported by the blood to target cells. Who am I?
    Solution
    The gland is an endocrine gland as it released many hormones which travels to the target site cells through blood. Adrenal gland and thyroid gland are endocrine glands.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Which of the following glands is concerned with salt equilibrium in body?
    Solution
    The adrenal glands are endocrine glands that produce a variety of hormones including adrenaline and the steroids aldosterone and cortisol. Adrenal glands are concerned with salt equilibrium in the body. 
    Mineralocorticoids produced in zona glomerulosa secreted from the adrenal cortex. Aldosterone is the main mineralocorticoid in our body. Aldosterone acts mainly at the renal tubules and stimulates re-absorption of $$Na^+$$ and water and excretion of $$K^+$$ and phosphate ions. Hence, option C is correct.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Who helps the thyroid to make its hormones?
    Solution
    • Thyroid uses iodine, a mineral found in some foods and in iodized salt, to make its hormones.
    • The two most important thyroid hormones are thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which is produced by the pituitary gland, acts to stimulate hormone production by the thyroid gland.

    Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Liver in our body stores
    Solution
    Liver is the largest organ in the body. It helps in digestion and removes waste products and worn-out cells from the blood. Liver performs many functions, like it forms and secretes bile that contains bile acids to aid in the intestinal absorption of fats and the fat-soluble vitamins as A, D, E, K and $$B_{12}$$. Hence, it stores vitamins as A, D, E, K and $$B_{12}$$.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    I am located above the kidneys and hence are called as supra renal glands. I have two regions adrenal cortex and adrenal medulla. Adrenal cortex secretes the hormones like cortisol, aldosterone and androgens. Adrenal medulla secretes the hormones like adrenaline and nor-adrenaline. I also secrete hormone of fight or flight or the emergency hormone. Who am I ?
    Solution
    Above mentioned all are characteristic features of adrenal gland. Thyroid gland, pancreas and pineal gland do not show these characteristics.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Endocrine system is controlled by the_____________.
    Solution
    • Hormones are chemical messengers of the body which control the animals' growth, development, and behavior. 
    • Hormones are produced by specialized glands that make up the endocrine system and are transported via the blood to control the function of different parts of the body. 
    • The pituitary gland at the base of the brain is the control center for the endocrine system.

    Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Pancreas secrete which of the following hormone?
    Solution
    The endocrine system is composed of several endocrine glands. A ductless gland or endocrine gland secretes its product, i.e. hormones directly into the bloodstream and shows its effects at distinct parts of the body. The pancreas located behind the stomach produces insulin that regulates the amount of glucose inblood. 
    Thus the correct answer is option D. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Which is not an example of homologous structure
    Solution
    Heterodont teeth and different types of vertebrates are examples of homologous structures. The structure which are different in appearance and perform different functions but have similar structure and developmental origin are called homologous organs.
