Master Gland" -Primary function is to control other glands -Produces many hormones -Secretion is controlled by the hypothalamus in the base of the brain The Pituitary Gland is divided into 2 areas‚ which differ ~structurally and functionally ~each area has separate types of hormone production The 2 segments are: ~Posterior Pituitary -produces oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone (ADH) ~Anterior Pituitary -produces thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) -growth hormone (GH) -adrenocorticotropin

They involve sweating‚ shivering‚ capillaries and hairs. As we learn in the class when your body becomes; Too hot When we get too hot: (1) The sweat gland in the skin release more sweat. This evaporates‚ removing heat energy from the skin. (2) The blood vessels leading to the skin capillaries becomes wider ‚ they expand allowing more blood to flow

Title: Mitosis and Meiosis Abstract: There are two types of nuclear division‚ mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is usually used for the growth and replacement of somotaic cells‚ while meiosis produces the gametes or spores used in an organism’s reproduction. Hypothesis: Mitosis occurs in whitefish blastula and onion root tip‚ and it is easily observable. Meiosis and crossing over occurs in the production of gametes and spores. Materials: This lab required prepared slides of whitefish blastula
