A scientist finds that infusion of growth hormone into the median eminence of the hypothalamus in experimental animals inhibits the secretion of growth hormone and concludes that this proves that growth hormone feeds back to inhibit GHRH secretion. Do you accept this conclusion?

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. No, because growth hormone does not cross the blood-brain barrier.
  2. No, because the infused growth hormone could be stimulating dopamine secretion.
  3. No, because substances placed in the median eminence could be transported to the anterior pituitary.
  4. Yes, because systemically administered growth hormone inhibits growth hormone secretion.

You capture several interesting insects from a population in your yard. By inbreeding, you develop true breeding strains that differ only in the shape of their wings - one strain has round wings while the other strain has oval wings. How might you demonstrate that Mendel's principles apply to your insects?
