LAB EXERCISE 32 Endocrine Glands FIGURE 32-1 kdentify endocrine glands indicated on the lines provided and on the blanks in the Lab Report at the end of this exercise. O 8 Testes-The pair of male gonads (primary sex organs) ovoid organs in the saclike serotum extemal to the low Pancreas-Both an endocrine and exocrine gland, the creas is a long, narrow mass of glandular tissue. Resembling fish, the pancreas is cradled in the bend of the C-shaped duodenum (first part of the sumall intestine, just inferior to the stomach). Thymus-This bwo-lobed gland is located in the anterior mediastinum. The thymus grows until puberty and then degenerates through adulthood. It is not shown in models of the adult human body. Pineal gland (or pineal body)-This tiny structure has al- ready been identified as a nervous structure in the dien- cephalon of the brain. Because it secretes several hormones, t is also considered an endocrine gland. pan- anterior trunk. O 9 Ovaries--The pair of female gonads called the ovaries ovoid organs within the pelvic cavity. Each is located at distal end of a tube leading to the uterus (womb) calle uterine (fallopian) tube. O 10 Other-Many other organs secrete endocrine hormo and so are considered by some biologists to be compone of the endocrine system. For example, the digestive tr the placenta, the kidneys, and the skin all produce enm crine hormones.
