Answer 2

The pituitary gland is an endocrine gland that is located in the brain. It produces hormone-like chemicals, which act as chemical messengers between organs.

Explanation:

• The pituitary gland is a small gland at the base of the brain that is about the size of a pea. Nerve fibres and blood arteries connect the pituitary gland to the hypothalamus (a portion of the brain that controls the pituitary gland).
• The pituitary gland is part of the endocrine system. The pituitary gland aids in the control of your body's activities by releasing hormones into your bloodstream. These hormones travel through your bloodstream to where they are needed.
• In this case, they normally cause the release of the second hormone. Specialized endocrine glands or other forms of bodily tissue, such as cell groupings, can be the target.
