answer
-posterior pituitary gland -the caudal portion of the pituitary gland that stores and releases two hormones (antidiuretic hormone and oxytocin) that are produced in the hypothalamus
question
ADENOHYPOPHYSIS
answer
-anterior lobe of the pituitary gland - secretes growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, melanocyte-stimulating hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, beta lipotropin molecules, and endorphins. -released from hypothalamus
question
RHINECEPHALON
answer
-olfactory region of the brain, located in the cerebrum.
question
DIENCEPHALON
answer
-serves as a nervous system passageway between the primitive brainstem and the cerebrum -(1)thalamus, (2)hypothalamus, (3)pituitary gland
question
SOMATOTROPIN
answer
-aka growth hormone (GH) -promotion of body growth in young animals, particularly the growth of bone and muscle -helps regulate the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids in all of the body's cells -found in bovines
