00:00:00.896 --> 00:00:06.867
The endocrine lab includes a feedback loop activity,
three case studies,

00:00:06.892 --> 00:00:09.921
and information about endocrine disorders.

00:00:10.074 --> 00:00:13.281
You will learn how hormones influence each other
through feedback loops.

00:00:13.306 --> 00:00:19.687
You will then work through a set of common scenarios
to explore differences between positive and negative feedback loops.

00:00:21.836 --> 00:00:26.294
The three case studies investigate reproductive
control, the stress response, and metabolic control.

00:00:26.450 --> 00:00:31.289
You'll identify organs and hormones involved in
each case study.

00:00:31.367 --> 00:00:36.132
Then, you'll be given data from rats that have been injected
with one of two relevant hormones.

00:00:36.157 --> 00:00:40.930
You'll determine which rat received which hormone using
data on what organs are affected and if they changed size.

00:00:41.015 --> 00:00:43.750
Finally, you'll answer questions on key concepts.

00:00:43.984 --> 00:00:48.036
On the endocrine disorders page,
you'll learn what happens to your body

00:00:48.075 --> 00:00:57.426
when hormone levels are chronically disruped
by working through a patient case.
