List tim''s symptoms and identify the organ system (or specific organ) associated with those symptoms. (your may need to reference other materials to identify associated organs and systems.) 2. where is the thyroid? what is the relationship between metabolism and the thyroid? 3. what is hyperthyroidism? what symptoms of timothy might suggest he has this disorder? 4. the doctor also decides to check on timothy's cortisol levels. what gland(s) produce cortisol?

1. Tim's symptoms include deteriorated coordination, stamina and school performance, nausea, painful joints and an abnormal increase in growth rate. His personality also changed which manifested as depressive mood, introversion, anxiety and tension. These symptoms could indicate an endocrinological problem, therefore the organ system which could be associated with them is the thyroid gland.

2. The thyroid gland is an organ of the endocrine system which is located in the neck, behind Adam's apple. It regulates metabolism, protein synthesis and development. It does so by producing a number of hormones: calcitonin, thyroxine and triiodothyronine. The two thyroid hormones (thyroxine and triiodothyronine) regulate the body's metabolism by controlling the way cells produce and consume energy.

3. Hyperthyroidism is an endocrine condition in which there is an overproduction of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland. Under these conditions, the thyroid gland proves to be overactive and the main symptom is the acceleration of the metabolism. Tim's sudden increase of growth rate and inability to gain weight, along with his nervousness and mood swings, and his fatigue and loss of energy could indicate a problem of hyperthyroidism.

4. Cortisol is a steroid hormone which is produced by the thyroid gland. It is often called as the "stress hormone" as it is released in response to a stressful situation. It is also released in response to low blood glucose concentration. Some of cortisol's functions are the increase in blood sugar, the suppression of the immune system and bone formation. Cortisol is also involved in the metabolism of macronutrients.

The list of symptoms which Tim has include:

Worsening coordinationLoss of staminaNauseaJoint pains

The possible problem is a situation called endocrinological problem and the organ system which could be associated is the thyroid gland.
