Learning
output
After completing this lesson students should be able to…
 tell the definition of chemical co-ordination
 tell the location of different types of endocrine glands
 describe the functions of different of endocrine glands.
Chemical Co-ordination
A group of cells releases hormones which
regulates the activities of others cells of the
body is called chemical coordination .
Pineal
Pituitary
Thyroid
Parathyroid
Thymus
Adrenal
Pancreas
Ovary
Testis
Pituitary Gland
1. STH: Controls growth of tissue, bones, metabolic process
and break down of glycogen.
2. TSH: Secretion of thyroxin and intake of iodine by the
tissue.
3. ACTH: Regulates the adrenal gland and influence of
melanocyte production.
4. LH: In male- testosterone, endrogene, in femaleprogesterone .
5. FSH: Producing and development of sperm and ovum. .
6.ADH: Increasing blood pressure, absorbing water
by kidney.
7. Oxytocin : Contraction of uterus and regulates
lactation.
Thyroid Gland
Thyroxin hormone: Increases the metabolism of
iodine, protein and carbohydrates.
Pituitary Gland
Thyroid Gland and Parathyroid Gland
Parathyroid Gland
Parath or parathyroid hormone: Calcium
releasing from bone, calcium absorbing from
food and preventing calcium loss by urine.
