THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
Its Parts and Functions
Nervous System - body control
NERVE IMPULSES
Endocrine System - body regulator
HORMONES
What is a GLAND?
It is an organ that develops a
secretion which performs
specific functions.
The Endocrine System
Is made up of ductless glands.
“Ductless” means without tubes
HORMONES
- Comes from the Greek word which
means “to arouse”
- Are chemical messengers formed from
substances taken from the blood.
- They circulate throughout the body &
exert specific effects on tissues, organs
or other glands located some distance
away from the cells that secrete them.
Our body needs a certain hormone at one
time , but not at all times.
(ex. Fireman’s adrenaline rush)
Your endocrine glands does not release
hormones continuously. There are
signals within the body that tell each
gland to secrete hormones. There are
also some signals that tell the gland to
stop.

Pituitary Gland
LOCATION:
found at the base of the brain
DESCRIPTION:
called the “master gland” because it
controls most of the other endocrine
glands.
The pituitary gland has two lobes:
The Anterior and Posterior
Hormones Secreted by the Posterior Pituitary

hormone (ADH)
2. Oxytocin

FUNCTION
Stimulates body growth
Stimulates release of
T3 and T4
Stimulates secretion of
hormones from cortex
FEMALE -Promotes ovulation
& hormone production
MALE – Sperm production
FEMALE – egg production
MALE - sperm production
Promotes lactation
(low levels in males; high
levels affect testosteron levels)
