Person A: The frontal Lobe is the biggest lobe of the brain‚ it controls conscious thought‚ your personality‚ and voluntary movement. When someone has irreversible damage to the frontal lobe‚ they can loose their personality‚ attention span‚ and might not even be able to control their emotions. Another side effect is loosing your judgment. Some people may start using drugs or drinking alcohol when they never would have thought about it in the past. Person B: The parietal lobe is located in the back

Hypopituitarism occurs when the anterior (front) lobe of the pituitary gland loses its ability to make hormones. The resulting symptoms depend on which hormones are no longer being produced by the gland. The pituitary gland controls many hormones including the growth hormone. A case with hypopituitarism could have symptoms that involve blood pressure‚ blood sugar‚ kidney function‚ sexual drive and multiple other things not just stunted growth‚ versus a growth hormone deficiency that would only affect

Iodine Description: Is a trace mineral that your body uses in small amounts to synthesize thyroid hormones that are necessary for regulating the body growth‚ development‚ metabolism and body temperature. Most of the iodine in the body is found in the thyroid gland‚ but is found also in the blood and muscles. The body contains approximately 20 to 30 mg of iodine which is mostly stored in the thyroid gland located in front of the neck. Food sources: Milk is the major source‚ fish from the sea‚ ‚ shell

The hormone that raises blood sugar level is insulin. FALSE Atrial natriuretic peptide is a hormone that controls blood pressure in part by increasing the urinary excretion of sodium. FALSE Oxytocin and ADH are produced in the posterior pituitary? FALSE Aldosterone is the most potent mineralocorticoid produced by the adrenals but the least abundant? FALSE Mylocytotic leukemia involves a condition of lymphocytes? FALSE All lymphocytes are leukocytes‚ but not all leukocytes are lymphocytes? TRUE

Temporal lobe epilepsy is a syndrome that results from recurrent epileptic seizures that can be traced back to the temporal lobe. In general‚ epilepsy is a brain disorder in which clusters of nerve cells‚ or neurons‚ in the brain sometimes signal abnormally. Neurons normally generate electrochemical impulses that act on other neurons‚ glands‚ and muscles to produce human thoughts‚ feelings and actions (NINDS‚ 2006). In temporal lobe epilepsy the normal pattern of neuronal activity becomes disturbed

Human Anatomy and Physiology 2 Growth Hormone and Thyroid hormones Growth hormone is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. This hormone was once believed to be of importance only during periods of active growth‚ but it is now recognized that adults produce nearly as much GH as children (Adams and Koch‚ 2009).GH stimulates the liver to produce sommatropins that then targets a variety of cells. Although its major targets are bone and skeletal muscle‚ GH stimulates many types of

The Human Growth Hormone and Its Effects on Our Bodies as We Age In this paper‚ I will explain what the human growth hormone is; its effects on our bodies as we age. Also‚ show the benefits received by following a prescribed treatment plant from a qualified physician. The results are amazing‚ as you will see; this has prompted more research into the benefits of hormone replacement therapy as we age.
