Anterior pituitary -> thyroid and mammary glands anterior pituitary -> adrenal glands anterior pituitary -> ovaries and testes anterior pituitary -> liver, bone, cartilage, muscle, fat anterior. Promotes secretion of thyroid- stimulating hormone (tsh) and prolactin (prl) Promotes secretion of follicle- stimulating hormone (fsh) and luteinizing hormone (lh) Promotes secretion of growth hormone (gh) pituitary -> mammary glands. Inhibits secretion of prolactin (prl) anterior pituitary -> liver, bone, cartilage, muscle, fat, thyroid. Inhibits secretion of growth hormone (gh) and thyroid- stimulating hormone (tsh) or thyrotropin. Growth of thyroid, secretion of thyroid hormone. or corticotropin. Growth of ovarian follicles and secretion of estrogen. Prl is secreted by pituitary cells called lactotropes (mammotrope s). The hormone and these cells are named for the role of prl in lactation. During pregnancy, the lactotropes increase greatly in size and number, and prl secretion rises proportionately.

Overview:
In this assignment you will review the hierarchy of an organism and the systems of the body. You will choose one system in the body and complete a chart listing the different parts for each level of organization within this system. After completing the chart, you will answer some discussion questions about your chosen system.
Background Information:
The hierarchy of an organism describes the levels of organization within an organism. These levels of organization are defined by the size and complexity of their parts from smallest to largest. The smallest level of organization of living organisms is a cell. A cell is the most basic unit of structure and function. Cells combine to create tissues. There are 4 types of tissues that make up all of the body:
  • Epithelial tissue forms the interior and exterior surfaces of the body. It creates surfaces for protection, absorption, and excretion.
  • Muscular tissue makes up the organs that have voluntary and involuntary functions and forms the organs responsible for movement.
  • Connective tissue forms binding, supporting, and transporting structures and usually contains collagen for strength.
  • Nervous tissue is made of neurons and glial cells that transport nerve impulses across the body.

Assignment:
On your own sheet of paper, draw and fill out the chart below and then answer the discussion questions.
