Glands, Hormones
The Endocrine System is a collection of ---- which secrete -----

What is Pituitary Gland
This gland controls the activities of other endocrine glands
|
-Growth Hormone
-Prolactin -Adrenocorticotropic -Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone -Luteinizing Hormone -Follicle-Stimulating Hormones -Oxytocin -Antidiuretic Hormone
The Pituitary Gland releases multiple hormones. Name four.
|
What is Epididymis

What is Ovary
This gland releases female sex hormones
|
What is:

|
Negative Feedback
cortisol, binds to its receptor on cells in the hypothalamus and adenohypophysis, and has the effect of stopping secretion of tropic hormones, example: CRH (corticotropin releasing hormone) and ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone). Less CRH secretion leads

|
What is homeostasis
Hormones are chemical messengers that are required in small quantities to produce their effects. If hormone levels are elevated for long periods of time, cells with the correct receptors will only need a smaller number of receptors for maximum response.
