What harmones does the Adrenal Medulla secrete?Epinephrine & norepinephrine
What is the function of Growth Hormone (GH)?Promotes growth of the entire body by affecting protein formation, cell multiplication, and cell differentiation
What is the function of Adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH)?Controls the secretion of some of the adrenocortical hormones
What is the function of Thryoid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)?Controls the rate of secretion of thyroxine and triiodothyronine by the thyroid gland
What is the function of Prolactin?Promotes mammary gland development and milk production
What is the function of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH)?Controls growth of the ovaries and testes, as well as their hormonal and reproductive activities.
What is the function of Antidiuretic hormone?Controls the rate of water excretion into the urine, thus helping to control the concentration of water in the body fluid
What is the function of Oxytocin?Helps express milk from the glands of the breast to the nipples during sucking and possibly helps in the delivery of the baby
What effect does Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone (TRH) have on the anterior pituitary?Increases secretion of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)

What effect does Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) have on the anterior pituitary?Increases secretion of Luteinzing Hormone (LH) & Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
What effect does Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) have on the anterior pituitary?Increases secretion of Growth Hormone (GH)
What effect does Growth Hormone Inhibitory Hormone (GHIH) have on the anterior pituitary?Decreases secretion of Growth Hormone (GH)
What effect Somatostain have on the anterior pituitary?Decreases secretion of Growth Hormone (GH)
What effect does Prolactin Inhibitory Hormone (PIH) have on the anterior pituitary?Decreases secretion of Prolactin
What region of the Adrenal Cortex produces Aldosterone?Zona Glomerulosa
What region of the Adrenal Cortex produces Cortisol?Zona Fasciculate
