Document Summary

Endocrine system looking at a series of 3 endocrines. Stress = neural input (neuron goes to hypothalamus) Gland = endocrine 3 the one that does the results of the body / negative feedback mechanisms to self-regulate and suppress endocrine 1 and 2. Benefits of the complexity of endocrine series figure 11-18. But cannot increase size of hypothalamus and pituitary because in an enclosed skull!! Would have to take the place of something else (a cost) Can increase production of endo 1 and 2 but will cause something else to be affected because the skull can only pack in so much: basically amplifiication is important because if we need more endocrines, We will increase the number of endocrine 3 because endo 1 and 2 are in an. Enclosed skull so their production is limited but we can produce a lot of. Hypothalamus hypophysiotropic endocrines endocrine 1 (7 total that come from hypothalamic neuron)
