Changes in hormone balance serve as the primary mechanism for adjustment to starvation. What changes occur and how do they facilitate adjustment to starvation?
The principal mechanism of adjustment to starvation is hormonal balance.Insulin production decreases sharply.Decreased insulin activity with increased synthesis of hormone glucagon promotes fatty acid mobilization from adipose tissue production of ketones and avialability of amino acids for gluconeogenesis.Glucocorticoids especially cortisol are important in gluconeogenesis because they promote catabolism of muscle protein to provide substrate for gluconeogenesis.However an increased adjustment characterised by decreased production of glucocorticoids and also decreased level of triiodothyronin results lowered metabolic rate.

what are the metabolic changes that occur during starvation or inadequate nutritional intake?
How is cortisol involved in fluid balance? What type of hormone is ANP? ANP is a peptide hormone, regulating the blood pressure. Does ANP cause an increase or decrease in blood volume and B/P and how? How can the nurse promote the release of ANP? How is the ANP hormone involved in fluid balance? How does the thirst mechanism control fluid balance? Which organ controls thirst and how? What is the BNP hormone and how is it involved in fluid...

in diabetes, what are the metalbolic end products? how fast do these processes occur? what is the half life, volume distribution, and clearance of the hormone? please answer each in details thank you
Where does the deamination of amino acids occur and what other metabolic changes occur at this site?
In 1970s and 1980s, molecular biologists discovered that the hormone testosterone, binds a receptor protein that recognizes a 15 base pair DNA sequence. Asa result, genes that contain this sequence can be activated by testosterone. Scientists called this hormone, an enhancer and exploited its property to turn genes off or on. In your class, you observed a similar mechanism related to a milk protein. Answer the following questions: What is the important molecular phenomenon or concept that you learned in...
How FAST do these processes occur? (destruction/metabolism of melatonin) please explain What is the half-life, volume of distribution, and clearance of the hormone?
