B. Epinephrine; norepinephrine

  • C. Cortisol; hydrocortisone
  • D. Insulin; glucagon
  • E. Testosterone; estrogen Feedback:Good work; your answer is correct! Question 5 of 32 0.0 / 3.0 Points In contrast to the nervous system, the endocrine system uses only one method of communication: signaling.
  • A. transmitter
  • B. “hard wired”

C. electrical

  • C. It manufactures three hormones. D. chemical
  • E. direct Feedback:In contrast, the endocrine system uses just one method of communication: chemical signaling. These signals are sent by the endocrine organs, which secrete chemicals—the hormone —into the extracellular fluid.

B. corpus luteum B. bulbourethral

  • C. prostate
  • D. seminal vesicles
  • E. corpus spongiosum Feedback:At the base of the urinary bladder, the 2 seminal vesicles secrete nutrient rich fluid into the ejaculatory ducts at the same point where the vas deferens delivers sperm. Question 12 of 32 3.0 / 3.0 Points During the second half of the ovarian cycle, progesterone is secreted by the.

A. mons pubis

C. myometrium C. primary follicle

  • D. anterior pituitary gland
  • E. posterior pituitary gland Feedback:Good work; your answer is correct! Question 13 of 32 3.0 / 3.0 Points Which layer of the uterus is shed during menstruation?

A. functional zone of endometrium

B. perimetrium

E. ductus deferens E. One oogonium produces one and only one ovum Feedback:Good work; your answer is correct! Question 15 of 32 3.0 / 3.0 Points In the testes, sperm cells replicate and differentiate in the.
