front 1 Posterior pituitary | back 1 ADH Oxytocin |
front 2 Anterior pituitary | back 2 FSH LH ACTH PRL TSH GH |
front 3 ADH | back 3 Find in the adrenal- is in charge of changing Water absorption and release/ Alcohol can stop the hormone. |
front 4 Oxytocin | back 4 location to the mammary gland is in charge of starting milk production. |
front 5 FSH | back 5 location in the ovary- its function is to stimulate egg development. Oocytes are stimulated to growth by FSH. Testicles- testosterone stimulated sperm production. |
front 6 LH | back 6 Location in the ovary which secrete during menstrual cycle/ hormone production and stimulates ovulation. Testicles- stimulated testosterone |
front 7 ACTH | back 7 Location in the adrenal gland in the cortex. Its function is to stimulate the release of cortisol which converts fats/proteins into glucose and anti. to regulate levels of the steroid hormone cortisol. |
front 8 PRL | back 8 location in the breast its function is to stimulate milk production in mammary gland cells |
front 9 TSH | back 9 Location in the thyroid- controls metabolism and stimulates secretion of thyroid T3 T4. |
front 10 GH | back 10 It's a tissue around the body that increases cell growth proliferation and differentiation. it increases the bone length and muscle marks. Increase glycogen breakdown in the liver/ increase insulin. |
front 11 Pineal gland | back 11 location is in the back of the brain- Its function is to regulate sleep and awake cycle and also metabolism. |
front 12 Pituitary gland | back 12 Location in the front of the brain- its function is to produce and release several hormones around the body. |
front 13 Thyroid | back 13 Location under Adam's apple - Its function is to produce and release hormones and is in charge of metabolism essential to the growth and development of the body. |
front 14 Parathyroid | back 14 Location in the back of the thyroid- Its function is to release hormones that regulate blood calcium levels. Id calcium levels increase the parathyroid increases the production of PTH wich causes excessive urine, stomach pain, and kidney stone. |
front 15 Pancreas | back 15 Located high up in the abdomen behind your stomach- Helps digest food and release glucagon and insulin which lower glucose levels. Insulin- Beta Glucagon- Alpha |
front 16 Adrenal gland | back 16 The location above the kidney- its function is to produce hormones that help regulate your metabolism, immune system, and blood pressure and respond to stress. |

Hormones estrogen- sexual and reproductive development of woman. Hormones progestogen- prepare the endometrium for fertilizing eggs to implant and grow. |
front 18 Thymus | back 18 The location is around the heart behind the breath bone- Its function is the production and , saturation of immune cells and making white blood cells. Is large when you are a child and disappears when you get older as an adult. |
front 19 Testicles | back 19 Located in either of the two oval organs that produce sperm in men. Also involved in producing a hormone testosterone is important during male development and maturation. |
