body that deals with chemical communication by means of hormones‚ the ductless glands that secrete the hormones‚ and those target cells that respond to hormones. The endocrine system functions in maintaining the basic functions of the body ranging from metabolism to growth. The endocrine system functions in long term behavior and works in conjunction with the nervous system in regulating internal functions and maintaining homeostasis. Hormones are the chemical messengers released by specialized endocrine

However other arguments will be presented‚ such as theories that support the fact that population growth has an impact in economic development. According to Weeks‚ J (1999:13) the rapid acceleration in growth after 1950 was due almost entirely to the declines in the death rates that accompanied industrial revolution

Identify the organs of the endocrine system‚ including their locations and structures. Hypothalamus: Is located below the thalamus just above the brainstem. Pituitary: Is location within the sella turcica which is a dip in the sphenoid bone. Structures are tropic hormone and neurohypophysis. Thyroid: A) Location: anteriorly‚ above the thyroid glad. B) Structures are the isthmus connecting the two lobe and thyroid follices and network of capillaries Adrenal: A) Location: sit on superior border of each kidney‚ it
