Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 26

Assertion : Diabetes insipidus is marked by excessive urination and too much thrust for water .

Reason : Anti-Diuretic hormone is secreted by posterior lobe of pitutary gland 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 26

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or vasopressin is secreted from posterior pituitary gland. It is released in response to a fall in the water content of blood plasma and lead to an increase in the permeability to water of the distal and collecting tubules of the nephron. Deficiency or hyposecretion of ADH results in diabetes insipidus. Diabetes insipidus is characterised by micturating dilute urine several times a day which results in excessive thirst (polydipsia) and dehydration.

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 27

Estrogen is secreted by :-

Detailed Solution for Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 27
  • Estrogen is primarily produced in the ovaries.
  • The Graafian follicles (mature ovarian follicles) release estrogen, especially during the menstrual cycle.
  • After ovulation, the corpus luteum, which forms from the remnants of the Graafian follicle, also secretes estrogen.
  • Additionally, the placenta produces estrogen during pregnancy to support fetal development.
Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 28

The "Estrogen" secretion is controlled by :-

Detailed Solution for Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 28

The hormones FSH and LH are together called as gonadotropin hormones. They are called the gonadotropins as they stimulate gonadal activity. The anterior pituitary (pars distalis) releases following gonadotrophic hormones:

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH): In males, FSH regulates spermatogenesis (formation of sperms) and in females, FSH stimulates growth and development of ovarian follicles and secretion of estrogen hormone.

Luteinizing hormone (LH): In males, LH is also called ICSH (interstitial cell-stimulating hormone) which stimulates testes to synthesize and secrete androgens (testosterone). It activates Leydig cells of the testes to secrete testosterone. In females, LH stimulates the ovulation of the fully matured Graafian follicles and also maintains the corpus luteum, formed from the remnants of Graafian follicles after ovulation. The corpus luteum secretes progesterone and some estrogen under the action of LH.

Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 29

The function of Glucagon doesn't include-

Detailed Solution for Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 29

Correct Answer: C: Increased cellular glucose uptake

Explanation: Glucagon primarily works to increase blood glucose levels by promoting glycogenolysis (breakdown of glycogen), stimulating gluconeogenesis (production of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources), and decreasing cellular glucose uptake. It does not directly increase cellular glucose uptake; instead, it raises blood glucose levels by releasing stored glucose into the bloodstream.

Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 30

Glycosuria and Ketonuria are dignostic of -

Detailed Solution for Test: Pancreas, Kidney, Skin, Glands & Pheromones - Question 30

Glycosuria and Ketonuria are diagnostic of:

- Diabetes mellitus

Explanation: When glucose is found in the urine (glycosuria) and ketones are also present (ketonuria), it indicates a problem with glucose metabolism, typically seen in diabetes mellitus. In diabetic individuals, the body cannot effectively utilize glucose, leading to its excretion in the urine. The presence of ketones suggests the body is using fats for energy due to insufficient insulin, a common occurrence in diabetes.
