[A] : Cortisol is a protein hormone that regu- lates gluconeogenesis and lowers blood pressure.
[R]: Low level of cortisol promotes release a factor from the aderanal cortex causing release of ACTH

[A] : The hormone aldosterone is secreted by adrenal cortex after the low Na^+ content in blood and the resultant low BP causes the kidney to release renin. [R]: Renin in blood leads to the formation of angiotensin II which causes adrenel cortex to release aldosterone that causes kidney to re- tain Na^+ and, therefore, water is reabsorbed and BP rises.

In this sectin each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet. S1 : Hormones have several functions in the body. S6 : The two hormones together regulate the glucose level in the blood. P : They help to maintain the balance of biological activities in the body. Q : Insulin is released in response to the rapid rise in blood glucose level. R : On the other hand hormone glucagon tends to increase the glucose level in the blood. S : The role of insulin in keeping the blood glucose level within the narrow limit is an example of this function. The correct sequence should be

Which of the following hormone levels will cause release of ovum (ovulation) from the graffian follicle?

Which of the following hormone levels will cause release of ovum (ovulation) from the graffian follicle?

Read the following statements (A - D) : 1. Catecholamines secreted from adrenal medulla stimulate breakdown of glycogen resulting in an increased concentration of glucose in blood. 2. Cortisol is also involved in maintaining the cardio -vascular syem as well as kidney functions. 3. Hormone released from zona fasciculate produce anti-inflammatroy reactions and suppresses the immune response. 4. Androgenic steroids secreted by adrenal cortex play a role in growth of axial hair, pubic hair and facial hair during puberty. How many of the above statements are ture?
