Regulates blood glucose levels Released in response to stressors Drives development of secondary sex characteristics in males Drives development of secondary sex characteristics in females Regulates cellular metabolism Stimulates growth of body tissues 1. especially bone and skeletal muscle Hormones: ACTH, ADH, calcitonin, cortisol, epinephrine, estrogens, FSH, glucagon, growth hormone, insulin, LH, oxytocin, prolactin, PTH, Ta/Ta, testosterone, TSH Glands: adrenal cortex, adrenal medulla, anterior pituitary, hypothalamus, ovaries, pancreas, parathyroid glands, posterior pituitary, testes, thyroid gland.

Explanation / Answer

1) Trophic hormones=hormones which have other endocrine glands as their target but secreted by anterior pitutary.

Example= FSH, LH, TSH, ACTH

2)ADH hormones by posterior pitutary

3)milk production= prolaction from anterior pitutary

Milk ejection is oxytocin from posterior pitutary

4)calcium metabolism = PTH by parathyroid glands

Calcitonin by throid glands

5)glucose levels by INSULIN and GLUCAGON by pancreas.

6)stress hormone= adrenaline by adrenal medulla

Cotisol by adrenal cotex

7)testosterone from testis

8)TSH from thyroid

9) growth hormone from anterior pitutary
