Answer 2

Thyroid GlandProduces hormones that regulate metabolism, bone-growth, and also produces thyroxine, which regulates how cells release nutrients.Parathyroid GlandProduces a hormone that regulate the body's calcium and phosphorus balance.TestesMale reproductive glands, helps develop secondary sex traits.OvariesFemale reproductive glands, help develop secondary sex traits.HypothalamusLinks the endocrine and nervous systems together, and stimulates the pituitary gland to secretes hormones.Pineal GlandSecretes melatonin, which regulates sleep cycles, and is thought to affect the onset of puberty.Pituitary GlandRegulates and controls the activities of the other endocrine glands.Thymus GlandRegulates the development of the immune system.Adrenal GlandsProduces hormones that regulate the body's salt and water balance. It also controls the body's emergency response.PancreasSecretes two hormones,glucagon and insulin.Anterior Pituitary; stimulates growth of bonesgrowth hormone (GH)Anterior pituitary; stimulates ovaries and testesluteinizing hormone(LH)Anterior pituitary; stimulates thyroid glandthyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)Anterior pituitary; stimulates adrenal cortex to secrete glucocorticoidsadrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)Anterior pituitary; stimulates gonads to produce sperm and ovafollicle stimulating hormone (FSH)posterior pituitary; stimulates contractions of uterus and mammary glandsOxytocinposterior pituitary; promotes retention of water by kidneysantidiuretic hormone (ADH)thyroid; controls metabolic ratethyroxinthyroid; lowers blood calcium levelscalcitoninparathyroid; raises blood calcium levelsparathormoneadrenal cortex; raises blood sugar levelglucocorticoidsadrenal medulla; raises blood sugar level by increasing rate of glycogen breakdown by liverepinephrine (adrenaline)adrenal medulla; raises blood sugar level by increasing rate of glycogen breakdown by livernorepinephrine (noradrenaline)pancreas--islets of langerhans; lowers blood glucose levelsInsulinpancreas--islets of langerhans; raises blood glucose levelsglucagonthymus gland; stimulates T lymphocytes as a part of immune responsethymosinpineal gland; involved in sleeping biorythms (the dark hormone because its production is inhibited by light))melatoninovaries; stimulates growth of uterine lining; promotes the development and maintenance of female primary and secondary characteristicsestrogenovaries; promotes uterine lining growthprogesteronetestes; support sperm production and promote secondary sex characteristicsandrogensAdrenal MedullaAdrenaline (Epinephrine & Nor epinephrine)Anterior PituitaryAdrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH)
