Identify important regulatory hormones that establish and maintain male sexual function

What will be an ideal response?


Important regulatory hormones that establish and maintain male sexual function are follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). Testosterone is the most important androgen, although some tissues, such as the external genitalia and prostate, are more responsive or sensitive to dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding skeletal-muscle contraction?

A. Only one cross-bridge cycle can occur when the [Ca2+] is elevated in the cytosol; in order to undergo a second cycle, [Ca2+] must be sequestered in the sarcoplasmic reticulum and released again.
