What is atherosclerosis?
The build-up of fats, cholesterol, and other substances in and on the artery walls.
A condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high.
Sudden, unexpected loss of heart function, breathing, and consciousness.
Improper beating of the heart, whether irregular, too fast, or too slow.
Damage to the brain from interruption of its blood supply.

Insulin and glucagon are secreted by the ________________ to help regulate blood sugar levels after eating.
pancreas
pituitary gland
thyroid
ovaries
the ____________ gland is controlled by the hypothalamus to help secrete hormones that affect the other endocrine glands.
pituitary
pancreas
thyroid
ovaries
how does a negative feedbak system control hormonal secretion?
the endodrine system tells the nervous system when to secrete hormones
continuously relesasing hormones so an organ never runs out
all endocrine glands work with positive feedback, not negative
nervous system directly stimulates the gland, the hypothalamus controls the pituitary's response to control the other glands and the glands react to the changes in the internal environment
