Endocrine Glands
Hypothalamus
•Part of the brain•Produces hormones that control pituitary gland
Pituitary Gland
•Controls activities of other glands (formerly known as the MASTER GLAND)
14-year old Khagendra Thapa Magar shown in the picture with another boy is only 50 centimetres (20 inches) tall and has been submitted to the Guinness world record as the world's smallest person. The previous world record holder was a Jordanian boy at 25.5 inches tall. Weighing only 4.5 kilograms, he is shown in exhibitions to collect fund for his education.
–Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and leutinizing hormone (LH): stimulate testes and ovaries
Thyroid
•Releases THYROXINE•Regulates rate of metabolism
This X-ray shows how an enlarged right lobe of the thyroid has moved the trachea to the patient's left. The trachea (outlined in light yellow) should be straight from the mouth down to the lungs, but in this patient it is compressed and displaced far to the left.
Parathyroid glands
•Release PARATHORMONE•Controls level of calcium in blood
