Objectives
1. Identify (in general) the chemical messengers of the nervous and endocrine system, and where each
messenger goes after it is released, and their importance in cell communication.
2. Identify and understand the importance of receptors on target cells.
3. Understand the importance of the shape of receptors and hormones in determining the specificity of
Hormone action.
4. Identify the neurons in a reflex arc, the function of each, and the route in which an impulse travels in
a reflex.
5. Identify the structure and function of the cerebrum, cerebellum, medulla, and spinal cord.
6. Identify the structure and function of the meninges.
7. Understand the function of the autonomic and somatic nervous systems.
8. Identify the symptoms, cause, and treatment of a disease of the nervous system.
9. Understand the importance and provide an example of negative feedback.
10. Understand the function of insulin, glucagon, thyroxin, testosterone, growth hormone, FSH, LH,
estrogen, and progesterone.
11. Identify the gland that produces each of the hormones listed above.
12. Identify the function of each hormone in the human menstrual cycle, and the glands that produce
each of them.
13. Identify the order of stages in the human menstrual cycle.
14. Identify similarities and differences between the nervous and endocrine systems.
