Answer to Question #44287 in Biology for Dimple

Question

I have several questions on the endocrine chapter for my anatomy and physiology II class in college. The questions are
1) citing specific hormones and their functions, describe the mechanisms behind the development of the "Three Ps" of diabetes?
2) what are the advantages of athletes training at high altitudes? What hormones would be affected at the higher altitude and what are their specific functions?
3)A six year old child is noted to be overwieght. The child easily fatigues, has difficulty learning to read as quickly as other classmates and is no longer growing. What hormones are likely to be deficient in the child? What are the roles of the hormones?

Thank you
