Which gland/organ is: -known as the "third eye" -produced melatonin, which helps maintain circadian rhythm and regulate reproductive hormones

Which gland/organ is: -control center for many automatic functions of the peripheral nervous system -connects with structures of the endocrine and nervous system -play a vital role in maintaining homeostasis -a limbic structure -influences various emotional responses

Which gland/organ is: -attached to via nerve fibers -produces critical hormones -development of the body -controls pigmentation -produces anti-diuretic hormone which reclaims water from the kidneys and concerves it in the blood stream to prevent dehydration -produces Oxycontin aiding uterine contractions during childbirth and stimulating the production and release of milk

What are the three different lobes of the pituitary glands? The [blank_start]anterior[blank_end] lobe is mainly involved in development of the body, sexual maturation, and reproduction. Hormones produced by the anterior lobe regulate growth, and stimulate the adrenal and thyroid glands, as well as the ovaries and testes. It also generates prolactin, which enables new mothers to produce milk The [blank_start]intermediate[blank_end] lobe of the pituitary gland releases a hormone that stimulates the melanocytes, cells which control pigmentation (eg. skin color) through the production of melanin. The [blank_start]posterior[blank_end] lobe produces antithetic hormones, which reclaims water from the kidneys and conserves in the bloodstream to prevent dehydration. Oxycontin is also produced by the posterior lobe, aiding in uterine contractions during childbirth and stimulating the production and release of milk.

Which gland/organ is: -vitally important hormonal gland that plays a major role in the metabolism, growth and maturation of the human body -regulates many body functions (breathing, heart rate, central and peripheral nervous systems, body weight, muscle strength, menstrual cycles, body temperature, cholesterol levels) by constantly releasing a steady amount of hormones into the bloodstream.

Which gland/organ is: -concisest of four tiny parts -control calcium levels -produces hormone that breaks down bone therefore causing calcium release -increases the body's ability to absorb calcium from food -increase kidney's ability to hold on to calcium

Which gland/organ is: -closely associated with the immune system -trains and develops T-lymphocytes or T cells, an extremely important type of white blood cell

Which gland/organ is: -consists of two glands -produces hormones that are vital to life such as cortisol (which helps regulate metabolism and helps your body respond to stress) and aldosterone (which helps control blood pressure)

What are the two different parts of the Adrenal Glands? The [blank_start]adrenal cortex[blank_end]- the outer part of the gland- produces hormones that are vital to life, such as cortisol (which helps regulate metabolism and helps your body respond to stress) and aldosterone (which helps control blood pressure). The [blank_start]adrenal medulla[blank_end]- the inner part if the gland- produces nonessential (that is you don't need them to live) hormones, such as adrenaline (which helps your body react to stress)

Which gland/organ is: -essential role in converting the food we eat into fuel for the body's cells -helps in digestion and regulates blood sugar levels

Which gland/organ is: -female reproductive cells or ova are produced

Which gland/organ is: -produces sperm and male hormone testosterone

Which gland/organ is: -produce a variety of hormones, including erythropoietin, and enzyme renin

Which gland/organ is: -progesterone is produced to prevent uterine contractions that may disturb the growing embryo -prepares breasts for lactation -increases estrogen levels near the end of pregnancy to alert the pituitary glands to release oxytocin, which causes uterine contractions

Function of the Urinary System is: 1. [blank_start]remove[blank_end] [blank_start]liquid[blank_end] waste from the [blank_start]blood[blank_end] in the form of urine. 2. keep a stable balance of [blank_start]salts[blank_end] and other substances in the blood 3. produce [blank_start]erythropoietin[blank_end], a hormone that aids the formation of [blank_start]red[blank_end] blood cells 4. remove urea from the blood through [blank_start]tiny[blank_end] filtering units called [blank_start]nephrons[blank_end]

In this neuron, [blank_start]electrical[blank_end] messages are received by the [blank_start]dendrites[blank_end] and pass through the [blank_start]cell[blank_end] body. The electrical conduction then flows down the [blank_start]axon[blank_end]. [blank_start]Myelin[blank_end] rapidly [blank_start]increases[blank_end] [blank_start]nerve[blank_end] conduction because the impulse [blank_start]jumps[blank_end] over each [blank_start]Schwann[blank_end] cell. The impulse finally leaves the neuron through the axon terminal and either travels to another nerve dendrite or to a [blank_start]muscle[blank_end] (motor nerve) which makes us move. Nerve function is controlled by the brain. The brain sends electrical impulses along neutrons that make not only our muscles move (somatic system) by also control the everyday existence of our organs and the rest of our bodies (autonomic system). The brain [blank_start]never[blank_end] shuts off. It is always processing stimulus and thoughts.
