12. THE HUMAN
ENDOCRINE
SYSTEM

13. ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
 It is composed of glands
that secrete different
types of hormones that
affect almost every cell,
organ, and function of our
body.
 It is essential in regulating
growth and development,
metabolism, as well as
reproductive processes,
and mood.

14. HOW DOES YOUR
ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
FUNCTION?

15. Endocrine
Glands
•secretes chemicals into the
bloodstream known as…
Hormones
•will be carried into the
bloodstream to its target organ
to produce notable…
Effect
•that can take a few
hours or even weeks or
years

TASK

43. B. Answer the following guide questions given on your Learner’s Material, page 243. Write your answer on
your notebook.
1.) Which gland of the endocrine and nervous system controls the other glands in the body?
2.) How will you differentiate thyroid and parathyroid glands in terms of location and function?
3.) If a person’s blood sugar level becomes unstable, what glands might be involved in the problem?
4.) How important is the thymus gland in keeping your body free from diseases?
5.) What might happen to a person born without a thymus gland?
6.) How will you explain the sudden boost of energy, increased strength and extraordinary ability to lift very

7.) Why is injecting insulin an essential part of the daily regime for most people with diabetes?
8.) Why does the menstrual cycle stop during menopause?
9.) How do oral contraceptives, specifically birth control pills, prevent pregnancy?
