Pituitary gland It is a gland that dangles from the ventral surface of the brain. It exerts hormones and it’s literal meaning is snot gland‚ how lovely. It is known as the master gland because of how it directs other types of organs and endocrine glands. Those glands would consist of the adrenal glands which in turn can be used to suppress or amp up hormone production (Pinel‚ 2009). 14.

strongest muscles in the female human body! There are two fallopian tubes‚ each attached to a side of the uterus. The fallopian tubes are about 4 inches (10 centimetres) long and about as wide as a piece of spaghetti. The ovaries are also part of the endocrine system because they produce female sex hormones such as estragon and progesterone. female reproductive organs illustration Once girls become sexually mature‚ the outer labia and the mons pubis are covered by pubic hair.

Homeostasis report 3.4 The Purpose of the Homeostatic System Homeostasis is a process that ensures the balance or equilibrium in different internal areas of the body. It’s vital that the human body maintains this balance state as significant fluctuations could cause a severe effect on the body. All homeostasis systems are negative feedbacks‚ “a regulatory mechanism in which a ‘stimulus’ causes an opposite ‘output’ in order to maintain an ideal level of whatever is being regulated”‚ meaning if the
