**Educational Website Content**---### Title: Identification of Hormone Releasing Regions in Histological Sections**Instruction:**Match the following. Letters are asking for the region, and numbers are asking for the hormone released from that region.---**Image Description:**The image displays a histological section stained to reveal different regions within a gland. There are arrows labeled A, B/1, C/2, D/3, E/4 pointing to specific areas in the section.**Diagram Explanation:**- **A:** An arrow pointing to the topmost region of the histological section.- **B/1:** An arrow pointing to a region slightly below A.- **C/2:** An arrow pointing to a central region.- **D/3:** An arrow pointing to a region below C/2.- **E/4:** The bottom-most region indicated by an arrow.Each label corresponds to a region or specific hormone associated with that region. The numbers correlate with the hormone that is released from the respective areas labeled by letters.---**Matching Section:**1. A: [Choose]2. B: [Choose]3. C: [Choose]4. D: [Choose]5. E: [Choose]**Hormones:**1. [Choose]2. [Choose]3. [Choose]4. [Choose]*Note:* Select the correct region for each letter and the corresponding hormone for each number from the dropdown menu provided. This matching exercise aims to enhance understanding of the anatomical regions of hormone release within glandular tissues.---**End of Content**---**Additional Resources:**- [Histology Basics](#)- [Endocrine System Overview](#)- [Interactive Quizzes](#)**Feedback:**For any questions or clarifications, please refer to the FAQ section or contact an instructor.---[Back to Top](#) ### Overview of Adrenal Gland HistologyThe adrenal gland is composed of distinct layers, each responsible for producing different hormones critical to bodily functions. Understanding the histological structure of the adrenal gland is essential for comprehending its function in endocrine regulation.#### Histological Layers of the Adrenal Gland1. **Capsule** - The outermost layer of the adrenal gland. - It is a tough, fibrous covering that provides protection. 2. **Zona Glomerulosa** (B/1) - Situated just beneath the capsule. - Cells in this zone primarily produce mineralocorticoids, such as aldosterone, which regulate sodium and potassium balance.3. **Zona Fasciculata** (C/2) - Located beneath the zona glomerulosa. - This layer is characterized by its long, fascicle-like cell arrangement. - The zona fasciculata secretes glucocorticoids, predominantly cortisol, which play a crucial role in glucose metabolism, immune response, and stress response.4. **Zona Reticularis** (D/3) - Found beneath the zona fasciculata. - It has a network-like (reticular) arrangement of cells. - This zone produces gonadocorticoids, including androgens, which contribute to the development of secondary sexual characteristics.5. **Adrenal Medulla** (E/4) - The innermost region of the adrenal gland. - This zone, derived from neural crest cells, secretes catecholamines, such as epinephrine and norepinephrine (NE). - These hormones are crucial for the 'fight or flight' response.### Diagram Explanation- **Arrows and Labels:** - The image contains a histological section of the adrenal gland, with layers labeled A through E/4. - Arrow **B/1** points to the zona glomerulosa. - Arrow **C/2** points to the zona fasciculata. - Arrow **D/3** points to the zona reticularis. - Arrow **E/4** indicates the adrenal medulla.Each of these layers has specialized cells producing specific hormones essential for various physiological processes, from electrolyte balance and metabolism to stress responses and reproductive functions.Understanding the structure and function of these zones aids in the comprehension of the adrenal gland’s crucial role in maintaining homeostasis within the
