1. Regulation of sexual reproductive cycles of human males is related most directly to the presence of the hormone 1. estrogen 3. testosterone 2. progesterone 4. insulin

2. The ability of certain hormones to attach to a cell is primarily determined by the 1. receptor molecules in the cell membrane 3. amount of DNA in the cell 2. proteins in the cytoplasm of the cell 4. concentration of salts outside the cell

3. The human reproductive system is regulated by 1. restriction enzymes 3. complex carbohydrates 2. antigens 4. hormones

4. The accompanying diagram represents two molecules that can interact with each other to cause a biochemical process to occur in a cell. Molecules A and B most likely represent

1. a protein and a chromosome 2. a receptor and a hormone

3. a carbohydrate and an amino acid 4. an antibody and a hormone

5. The accompanying diagram represents an interaction between parts of an organism. The term chemicals in this diagram represents

1. starch molecules 2. DNA molecules

3. hormone molecules 4. receptor molecules

6. Which hormone does not directly regulate human reproductive cycles? 1. testosterone 3. insulin 2. estrogen 4. progesterone

7. The pancreas produces one hormone that lowers blood sugar level and another that increases blood sugar level. The interaction of these two hormones most directly helps humans to 1. maintain a balanced internal 3. dispose of wastes formed in other body environment organs 2. digest needed substances for other body 4. increase the rate of cellular organs communication

8. The reproductive cycle of a human is usually regulated by 1. gametes 3. natural selection 2. hormones 4. immune responses

9. The accompanying graph shows the relative concentrations of certain hormones in the blood during the human female reproductive cycle. Which hormone has the lowest concentration on which day?

1. hormone A on day 4 2. hormone B on day 2

3. hormone C on day 12 4. hormone D on day 20

10. To communicate between cells, many multicellular animals use 1. nerve signals and respiratory gases 3. bones and muscles 2. respiratory gases and hormones 4. nerve signals and hormones
