1 (a) In mammals, the hormone ACTH is released from the anterior pituitary gland. ACTH
stimulates the cells of the adrenal glands to synthesise the hormone cortisol. This is an example
of cell signalling.
.N
The main stages of cell signalling involving ACTH are similar to the main stages of cell signalling
by adrenaline.

(b) If the concentration of cortisol in the blood increases above its set point, it will inhibit the
production of ACTH by the anterior pituitary gland.
......................................................................................................................................[1]
(c) The domestic dog, Canis lupus familiaris, is a mammal. A dog may develop a condition called
Cushing’s disease, which is a result of too much cortisol being secreted by the adrenal
r
glands. The most common cause of this is an increased secretion of ACTH because of a
tumour in the anterior pituitary gland.

1 (a) The enzyme alanine transaminase (ALT) is found in the liver. The function of ALT is to
convert the amino acid -ketoglutarate into another amino acid, glutamate.

potential of the blood.

potential of the blood would be detected.
