Thyroid Gland
The thyroid gland is a single organ located in the anterior part of the neck. It regulates the metabolism of the body and normal growth and development, and controls the amount of calcium (Ca) deposited into bone. The following table describes the hormones secreted by the thyroid and their effects.
Adrenal Glands (Suprarenals)
The adrenal (uh DREE nul) glands, also called the suprarenals, are paired, one on top of each kidney. Different hormones are secreted by the two different parts of these glands: the external portion called the adrenal cortex (uh DREE nul KORE tecks) and an internal portion called the adrenal medulla (uh DREE nul muh DOO lah).
The adrenal cortex secretes three hormones that are called steroids.
