SENSE- is the ability to perceive stimuli. SENSATION (PERCEPTION)- is the conscious awareness of stimuli received by sensory receptors. GENERAL SENSES- are those with receptors distributed over a large part of the body. SOMATIC SENSES- provides sensory information about the body and the environment. VISCERAL SENSES- are more specialized in structure and are localized to specific parts of the body such as pain and pressure. SPECIAL SENSES- are more specialized in structure such as smell

increasing release of calcium from bone. Through their secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH)‚ the parathyroid glands are primarily responsible for maintaining extracellular calcium concentrations. Hence‚ overproduction of parathyroid hormone results in elevated levels of plasma calcium. Hyperparathyroidism is a disease characterized by excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone which is an 84–amino acid polypeptide hormone. The secretion of parathyroid hormone is regulated directly by the plasma

called releasing hormones that are absorbed into the primary capillaries. These compounds in turn effect the secretion of stimulating hormones into the secondary capillaries to take them all over the body by the blood. Some of these from the anterior pituitary are called tropic hormones because they stimulate specific endocrine glands. The two targeting the reproductive organs are called gonadotropins. Secretion of most tropic hormones is achieved by negative feedback of the target gland hormones acting on

A few interesting ‘times’ during the 24 hour cycle is: the bowel movements‚ fastest reaction time‚ best coordination‚ and then the most interesting the highest testosterone secretion?

the hormone results in dwarfism; an over secretion results in gigantism. Another hormone of the anterior pituitary is prolactin‚ also called lactogenic hormone (LH). This hormone promotes breast development and milk secretion in females. A third hormone is thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). The function of TSH is to control secretions of hormones from the thyroid gland. A fourth hormone is adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). This hormone controls the secretion of hormones from the adrenal glands.
