Question
Match each of the following hormones at left with the endocrine gland/organ from which it is secreted. Ovaries Parathyroid glands Liver Luteinizing hormone Epinephrine Thyroxine hormone (GnRH) Adrenal medulla Kidney Anterior pituitary gland Cortisol Estrogen Testosterone Leptin Adipose tissue cells Testes Pineal gland Insulin-like growth factor1 Angiotensin II (IGF-1) Parathyroid hormone( Hypothalamus Produced in Blood Thyroid Melatonin Thymopoietin Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) Insulin Pancreas Thymus Adrenal cortex Placenta ResetExplanation / Answer
OVARIES: The ovaries secrete the estrogen, progesterone. PARATHYROID GLAND: the parathyroid gland secretes parathormone or parathyroid harmone Liver secretes bile, digestive fluids, metabolizes proteins. Adrenal medulla secretes Epinephrine, norepinephrine etc. Kidney secretes erythropoietin and enzyme renin. Anterior pitutatory secretes growth harmone, follicle stimulating harmone, leutanizing harmone, prolactin, adrenocorticotropic harmone, thyroid stimulating harmone. Adipose tissue cells secrete type of cytokines called as adipokines Testes secrete testosterone. Pineal gland secretes melatonin Hypothalamus release the gonadotropin releasing harmone. The hypothalamus controls the release of the harmones. Blood plasma proteins are produced in the blood. Thyroid secretes thyroid stimulating harmone for the release of thyroid releasing harmone. Pancreas secretes insulin and glucagon Thymus secretes thymosin which is essential for the development and pro duction of T cells. Adrenal cortex secretes glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. Placenta secretes human chorionic gonadotropin, progesterone,estrogen, human placental lactogen.
