Hey, everybody.
00:01
Today we're talking about mammals and our hormones because we are mammals.
00:07
So let's write that out first.
00:18
So instead of sitting here and going through, oops, every single option on this question, which is a lot of information dealing with a bunch of different systems, i think it's important to get into the one that is going to be the correct answer.
00:37
And as this it just says in mammals you can have a lot of different things and it can get kind of overwhelming so they all kind of have to do with reproduction aspects or let's say all have theme by that i mean all options of human slash mammal hormone so i think it's important to kind of go into what the correct answer is and discuss it.
01:31
So the first one is talking about the pineal gland controls, both female and male reproductive systems.
01:43
Hormones are something important to maintain homeostasis.
01:49
So this is a lot of information.
01:52
And let's just focus on the right answer.
01:54
Like i said it was going to.
01:56
So the right answer is going to be gnrh stimulates lh to control testosterone.
02:19
That would have a funny for testosterone.
02:22
Testosterone production.
02:26
Okay.
02:27
So let's just focus on learning about this.
02:32
So when we're talking about gnrh, it's going to be standing for gonadotropin releasing hormone.
03:05
A mouthful, am i right? so if you look at gonad, you go, okay, gonads, reproductive organs.
03:11
So you're going to go, betta has something to do with reproductive organs.
03:16
So now let's use that and we're going to figure out whether or not this is correct.
03:22
Lh, which is dealing with different gonad stuff.
03:41
Sorry, that sounds weird.
03:42
But basically, you're going to look at to see if this is accurate, specifically in mammals.
03:49
Mammals kind of have some unique, reproductive organs comparatively to like everybody else, even within the phylum of cordata.
03:58
So it's important to realize, okay, how are we different than everybody else? one of the ways that it's easy to remember in the male instances is our pituitary, i mean, not our pituitary gland.
04:15
We have exterior chesticles, a lot of mammals do.
04:21
And when you're dealing with that, it's easy to kind of remember what they look like.
04:25
And obviously, testosterone is in females and males, but it's kind of like a male hormone because you think of it, males have higher levels.
04:34
If you think about like the olympics or anything, they test for that.
04:38
So you're trying to figure out if the gnrh is stimulating that to cause an increase in testosterone production.
04:52
Testosterone does work in this way...
