The thyroid gland is a ductless endocrine gland situated in the anterior/front portion of the neck.
- It roughly resembles the shape of a butterfly. It is also one of the largest endocrine glands, weighing an average of 25 – 30 g. This gland has two lobes on either side of the trachea, with each lobe measuring 4 – 6 cm in length and 1.3 – 1.8 cm in width.
The pineal gland is a small, pea-shaped gland in the brain.
- Its function isn't fully understood.
- Researchers do know that it produces and regulates some hormones, including melatonin. Melatonin is best known for the role it plays in regulating sleep patterns. Sleep patterns are also called circadianrhythms.
The organ located in the dermis is known as a sebaceous gland.
- They secrete an oily, wax substance known as sebum.
- Sebum waterproofs and lubricates the skin and hair of mammals.
- Sebum lubricates the skin to protect against friction and makes it more impervious to moisture.
- Sebaceous glands are usually attached to hair follicles and release a fatty substance.
