Why is scatter radiation a safety concern? I got WRONG: ****WRONG*** It causes leakage radiation from the radiation source or equipment ...

3 reflex mechanisms that stimulate hormone secretion Correct Answer: 1.Hormonal Stimulation: stimulus for release of hormones by the binding of another hormone (eg the TSH from anterior pituitary binds to thyroid gland to release TH) 2.Humoral Stimulation: release of hormone in response to change of blood nutrient levels (eg blood glucose levels rise so insulin is released from pancreas, or fall and glucagon is released) 3.Neural Stimulation: direct stimulation from nervous system to endocrin...
