Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The endocrine system produces hormones that function to control and regulate many different body processes. The endocrine system coordinates with the nervous system to control the functions of the other organ systems. Cells of the endocrine system produce molecular signals called hormones. These cells may compose endocrine glands, may be tissues or may be located in organs or tissues that have functions in addition to hormone production. Hormones circulate throughout the body and stimulate a response in cells that have receptors able to bind with them. The changes brought about in the receiving cells affect the functioning of the organ system to which they belong. Many of the hormones are secreted in response to signals from the nervous system, thus the two systems act in concert to effect changes in the body.
Answer:
(a) Hypothalamus- thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH), Corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), growth hormonereleasing hormone (GHRH), somatostatin, dopamine, follistatin, Melanocyte-inhibiting factor (melanostatin), etc.
(b) Pituitary- Hormones secreted by the anterior pituitary are: Growth Hormone (GH), Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Adenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH), Prolactin (PRL), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinising Hormone (LH). Hormones secreted by the posterior pituitary are: Oxytocin, Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
(c) Thyroid - T3 (tri-iodothyronine), T4 (thyroxine) and calcitonin
(d) Parathyroid- Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
(e) Adrenal- Adrenal cortex secretes: glucocorticids, mineralocorticoids and sex hormones (androgens). Adrenal medulla secretes: Adrenaline (epinephrine) and Nor-Adrenaline (nor-epinephrine)
(f) Pancreas- Insulina and glucagon
(g) Testis- Inhibin
(h) Ovary- Inhibin
(i) Thymus- Thymosin
(j) Atrium- Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)
(k) Kidney- Erythropoietin
(i) G-I Tract- Gastrin, Secretin, Cholecystokinin (CCK)
