Front (Question)

Name the struture labelled B

Back (Answer)

Thyroid cartilage

Front (Question)

Name the struture labelled C

Back (Answer)

Inferior thyroid artery

Front (Question)

Name the struture labelled D

Back (Answer)

Epiglottis

Front (Question)

Name the struture labelled F

Back (Answer)

Isthmus of thyroid gland

Front (Question)

Name the struture labelled E

Back (Answer)

Superior thyroid artery

Front (Question)

Name the struture labelled G

Back (Answer)

Left lateral lobe of thryroid gland

Front (Question)

Which cells are shown marked A?

Back (Answer)

Thyoid follicular cells

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 1?

Back (Answer)

Thyroglobulin is synthesized and discharged into the follicle lumen

#10

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 2?

Back (Answer)

Iodide (I-) is trapped or actively transported in

#11

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 3?

Back (Answer)

Iodide is oxidized to iodine

#12

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 4?

Back (Answer)

Iodine is attached to tyrosine in colloid, forming DIT and MIT

#13

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 5?

Back (Answer)

Iodinated tyrosines are linked together to form T3 and T4

#14

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 6?

Back (Answer)

Thyroglobulin colloid is endocytosed and combihned with a lysosome

#15

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked 7?

Back (Answer)

Lysosomal enzymes cleave T3 and T4 from thyroglobulin and hormones diffuse into bloodstream

#16

Front (Question)

what is the structure marked A?

Back (Answer)

Posterior lobe of pituitary

#17

Front (Question)

What is happening at the point marked 1?

Back (Answer)

Hypothalamic neurons synthesize oxytocin or ADH

#18

Front (Question)

What is happening at the point marked 2?

Back (Answer)

Oxytocin or ADH are transported down the axons of the hypothalamic hypophyseal tract to the posterior pituitary

#19

Front (Question)

What is happening at the point marked 3?

Back (Answer)

Oxytocin and ADH are stored in axon terminals of the posterior pituitary

#20

Front (Question)

What is happening at the point marked 4?

Back (Answer)

When hypothalamic neurons fire, action potentials arriving at the axon terminals release oxytocin and ADH into the blood

#21

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked A?

Back (Answer)

PTH release from parathyroid gland

#22

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked B?

Back (Answer)

Osteoclast activity in bone causes CA2+ and PO43 release into blood

#23

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked C?

Back (Answer)

CA2+ reabsorption in the kidney tubule

#24

Front (Question)

what is happening at the point marked D?

Back (Answer)

Activation of vitamin D by kidney
