Question
Chapter 17.8, Problem 21WDYL
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The anatomic relationship of the follicular and parafollicular cells and identification of the hormones secreted by each.
Introduction:
Hormones are chemical coordinators of the body. They are involved in regulating the physiological and metabolic processes of the body. These hormones also maintain the balance between the different chemical components of the blood (homeostasis).

The hypothalamus initiates the release of Gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GNRH). When the anterior pituitary gland receives signal, it will produce follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Secretion of GnRH, FSH, and LH stops. Stimulation of spermatogenesis in male and oogenesis in female. The inhibin and testosterone signal the anterior pituitary gland and the hypothalamus to stop the production of reproductive hormones.arrow_forward
