Answer:
Pituitary gland is also known as master gland because it controls the activities of most of the gland.
It regulates the secretion of other glands. Like-
a) Growth hormones – Body growth and development of bones
b) Thyroid stimulating hormone – Secretion of hormones form thyroid gland.
c) Adrenocorticotropic hormone – Secretion of hormones form adrenal glands.
d) Follicle stimulating hormone – Stimulating of growth of ovaries and testes
e) Luteinsing hormone – Secretion of hormone from ovaries & testes
f) prolactin – Regulation of function of mammary gland. Hence, most of functions are controlled by pituitary gland so it is called master gland.
