Recently published research articles indicate that patients with endocrine system related diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and adrenal gland disorders are at high risk for COVID19. Use your endocrine system knowledge to briefly discuss how people with these endocrine disorders are deemed to be at high risk. Please can you help me with an explanation for 6 marks, please read the instructions carefully and focus on the endocrine system.

Matt W, age 10 years, has just returned from a camping trip with his scout troop. He has a runny nose and itchy eyes and is irritable. The tent was set up in a grassy field, and the boys played several games on the field. Matt’s dad takes him to the local health care center, where a diagnosis of allergy to pollen is made.
The father was anxious about the symptoms and asked for medications, what medications can help in this case, describe the mechanism of action, and any side effects or contraindications.

After returning to the recovery room the valve starts to leak and the blood pressure starts to fall, a patient who was sent open-heart surgery for a replacement of an aortic valve. After the personal starts to infuse norepinephrine to increase the blood pressure, the renal function of the patient starts to decline.
1. What are the mechanisms by which norepinephrine might lower the glomerular filtration rate? Be sure to focus on renal plasma flow and Glomerular Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure.
2. The personal is concerned by his lowered glomerular filtration rate. The elect to try a new treatment, the infusion of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). What might be the mechanism by which this would increase GFR?

Identify 3 upper respiratory tract organs. For each, describe one important structural characteristic (could be a tissue type within the wall or a more unique structure/part) that is important for its function in that location. Include a brief comment connecting the characteristic to its functional role.

Trace the path ofa molecule of lipid from the point of ingestion until it reaches the lumen of the right atrium of the heart (in circulation). Describe the anatomical structures this molecule passes on its journey (alimentary canal organs/regions/structures, accessory organs, valves, epithelial tissues, relevant transport vessels it passes through)

filtrate, in order, until it officially becomes urine. Include
kidney location, tissue type, and function in urine formation for
each part.
6. Name the male and female gonads. Describe one anatomical/structural similarity and one functional similarity between the male and female gonads. Comment on the reason these organs are similar.
