Document Summary
Exocrine: have ducts (digestive substances, sweat glands, etc. ) The cells will secrete hormones which will work its way to the basements membrane, into the underlying ct and then transported via blood vessels. Humoral: occurs when you have changes in blood solute concentration. Hormonal: one hormone exerts effects on another gland to secrete its hormones. Hypercalcemic, body secretes hormones to lower blood calcium levels back to normal state. Regulates anterior pituitary output via releasing and inhibitory hormones (hormonal stimuli) Synthesizes 2 hormones exported to posterior pituitary for storage/release. 2 hormones exported by the hypothalamus to the posterior pituitary for storage/release. Hormone released during childbirth and when a newborn comes into contact with the mother (breastfeeding), also during climax (euphoria) Released in response to high solute concentration in the blood, conserves water/reabsorbs it via convoluted kidney tubules.
