4. What hormone stimulates testosterone production in males?
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
Luteinizing hormone (LH)
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)
Inhibin
5. Which describes the regulation of testosterone production inmales?
Negative feedback mechanism: When testosterone levels drop, thisinhibits hormone release by the anterior pituitary and thehypothalamus and testosterone levels rise
Positive feedback mechanism: When testosterone levels drop, thisinhibits hormone release by the anterior pituitary and thehypothalamus and testosterone levels rise
Negative feedback mechanism: When testosterone levels increase,this inhibits hormone release by the anterior pituitary and thehypothalamus and testosterone levels drop
Positive feedback mechanism: When testosterone levels increase,this stimulates hormone release by the anterior pituitary and thehypothalamus and testosterone levels drop
6. Which hormone is not involved in promoting spermatogenesis inmales?
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
Testosterone
Androgen-binding protein (ABP)
Inhibin
7. Which hormone is responsible for maturation of male sexorgans?
Growth hormone
Follicle-stimulating hormone
Luteinizing hormone
Testosterone
Androgen-binding protein
8. Which is not a function of testosterone?
Stimulates male pattern of development
Contributes to spermatogenesis
Contributes to male sexual behavior
Stimulates mammary gland development
9. Which statement about hormonal regulation of malereproductive function is wrong?
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamusstimulates the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) fromthe anterior pituitary
The anterior pituitary releases androgen-binding protein(ABP)
Androgen-binding protein (ABP) maintains high levels oftestosterone
Luteinizing hormone (LH) stimulates the interstitial cells tosecrete testosterone
The anterior pituitary releases luteinizing hormone (LH)
10. Abnormally low levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) in thenormal male adult cause
Decreased testosterone secretion
Excessive growth of facial and body hair
Increased spermatogenesis
The anterior pituitary gland to shrink from lack of hypothalamicstimulation
