Chapter 17.7, Problem 20LO
Summary Introduction
To explain: The way in which the hypothalamus regulates the release of the two hormones from the posterior pituitary gland and the general function of each hormone.
Concept introduction: Hypothalamus is located in the brain, above the pituitary gland. It secretes Oxytocin and Antidiuretic hormones and controls the pituitary gland. The major function of the hypothalamus is to link the nervous system with the endocrine system through the pituitary gland. This attachment is formed by infundibulum presence that attaches posterior pituitary to the hypothalamus.
