The hypothalamus: Controls the autonomic nervous system, regulates homeostasis, and gives instructions to the pituitary gland through specific releasing hormones and inhibiting hormones. It also controls the functions of all the other glands, directly or indirectly, of the endocrine (hormonal) system.
The anterior pituitary; Produces, stores, and secretes hormones such as prolactin (PRL), human growth hormone (hGH), melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH), thyroid stimulating hormones (TSH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), folicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and lutenizing hormone (LH).
The posterior pituitary: Only stores hormones produced by the hypothalamus such as antidiruetic hormone (ADH) and oxytocin.
The pineal gland regulates the day/night body clock (circadian rhythms) by producing melatonin and releasing it at night to help you sleep.
Pituitary gland.
In a single person there are seven major endocrine glands: Pineal gland (brain), pituitary gland (brain), pancreas (abdomen), thyroid gland (throat), thymus (chest), adrenal gland (abdomen), ovary in females (abdomen), and testis in males (groin). The exocrine glands are sweat glands, mammary glands, salivary glands, and the liver.
Yes, definitely small quantities of potassium is required for the brain to ensure the brain functions are normal.
gastric glands are found in the stomach.
Brunner's glands or duodenal glands.
Glands located in the abdomen include cardiac glands, fundic glands, and pyloric glands. There are different types of cells that are found at different layers in each of these glands.
The frog's spinal cord relays motor signals from the brain to the muscles of the body, and sensory information from the body to the brain.

Thyroid and thymus glands are common in male & females. pituitary (Brain), adrenal gland & testis are only present in males. pineal gland(Brain), pancreas & ovary are in females.

The whole skull holds the brain. There are two sides to the brain and each side controls various functions.
Yes, definitely small quantities of potassium is required for the brain to ensure the brain functions are normal.

Meibomian glands
The adrenal glands.
Both endocrine and apocrine sweat glands are found in the armpit. Apocrine sweat glands are found almost everywhere, while endocrine glands are found in the genetial region and the auxillary region.
duodenal glands
