| 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 |
