This document appears to be from a lesson on the endocrine system. It includes directions and questions for an activity where students locate different glands on diagrams of the human body. The document tests students' knowledge of the key glands like the pituitary, thyroid, pancreas and reproductive organs. It also discusses how the endocrine and nervous systems work together to maintain homeostasis. Students are assigned to write a short essay about how dysfunction of a selected endocrine gland could affect their life.

32. Nervous System and
Endocrine System
The nervous system works with
the endocrine system to detect
and transmit signals from
internal and external stimuli to
maintain homeostasis in the
body.

33. Nervous System and
Endocrine System
The nervous system uses
electrical impulses to send
messages through neurons while
endocrine glands use hormones
to send messages to the target
cells through the bloodstream.

34. ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
The endocrine system ( endo- “within
or inside,” and krinein- “to secrete”) is
made up of several glands.

35. GLANDS
These glands are located
throughout the body that
create and secrete or
release hormones into the
bloodstream.

36. The 8 Major Glands
• Pituitary Gland
• Thyroid Gland
• Parathyroid Gland
• Adrenal Gland
• Thymus Gland
• Pancreas
• Gonads:
• Testicles/Testes
• Ovaries

37. Hormones cause changes in activity in
these target cells and direct a variety of
cellular activities to keep the body in
homeostasis.

39. ENDOCRINE GLANDS AND THEIR HORMONES
• Located at the base of
the brain.
• Connected to
hypothalamus.
• Stimulates the growth
• Controls the functions of
other glands.
• Divided into Anterior and
posterior lobes.
