Aclient is undergoing diagnostics for an alteration in thyroid function. what physiologic function is affected by altered thyroid function?

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland that sits low on the front of the neck.It plays a major role in the metabolism, growth and development of the human body

Explanation:

The physiologic function affected by altered thyroid function are:

1. It is likely that all cells in the body are targets for thyroid hormones

2. It stimulates diverse metabolic activities most tissues, leading to an increase in basal metabolic rate

3. Thyroid hormones are clearly necessary for normal growth

Thyroid hormones increases heart rate, cardiac contractility and cardiac output. They also promote vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), which leads to enhanced blood flow to many organs. Central nervous system: Both decreased and increased concentrations of thyroid hormones lead to alterations in mental state.
