| how are the Nervous & Endocrine systems linked |
|
Definition
Hypothalamus = “master nerve control center” and Pituitary gland = “master gland”
|
|
|
Term
Pituitary gland = “master gland”
|
|
Definition
endocrine system: secretes broad range of “tropic” hormones regulating other glands in body
|
|
|
Term
Hypothalamus = “master nerve control center”
|
|
Definition
nervous system: receives information from nerves around body about internal conditions
releasing hormones: regulates release of hormones from pituitary
|
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Hypothalamus: TRH = TSH-releasing hormone
Anterior Pituitary: TSH = thyroid stimulating hormone
Thyroid: produces thyroxine hormones |
