Objective
Differentiate between
hydrophobic and hydrophilic
hormones in terms of
structure, transport in the
blood, and interactions and
effect on target cells.
Explain the role of the
hypothalamus and pituitary
and their associated hormones
in terms if testosterone
production
Predict and explain the
outcome of a male that injects
testosterone.
Explain the role of the
pituitary and what could
happen if it is damaged or
destroyed

The difference between hydrophobic
Textbook reading and and hydrophilic in terms of hormone
class activity structure is that
Hypothalamus releases GnRH that
stimulates the pituitary gland which
then releases LH and FSH. LH and
FSH then stimulates the testes which
Class Activity causes it to produce testosterone.
I predicted that the male that injects
himself with testosterone will have
smaller testicles, smaller pituitary
gland, and more female aspect. That's
because the Pituitary gland is
becoming more useless because the
dosage of testosterone is replacing
the testosterone made in the Pituitary
gland. Now the body is starting to
depend on the shots, thus making the
Class Activity Pituitary gland smaller.
The pituitary gland releases LH and
FSH in a response to the
Hypothalamus telling the body
needing to produce more
testosterone, if it was to be destroyed,
you wouldn't be able to produce any
hormones. If it was shrunk down, it
would be less effective, because it's

Diabetes type 1 and 2 may be similar,

Differentiate between Type 1
and Type 2 diabetes in terms
of causes, treatments,
prevalence, and physiology in
regards to insulin.
but they have their differences. If you
are diagnosed with diabetes type 1,
you are not able to produce insulin.
The production of insulin is
prevented as the body's immune
system attack the beta cells(which
produce insulin) within the pancreas.
Because your body isn't able to
produce any insulin, you will have to
inject insulin into you daily. If you
are diagnosed with diabetes type 2,
your body is able to produce insulin,
but unable to use it. The reason being
is because the glucose(which turns
into insulin) within your body is
being released into your bloodstream,
hence causes your blood pressure to
be high. It's not as harmful as
diabetes type 1, but it's still not a
good thing to have. For treatment,
you'll have to maintain a healthy diet
