It promotes the further preparation of the uterine lining for pregnancy and prevents the uterus contracting until the baby is born.

It is often called the “master” endocrine gland because it controls many of the other endocrine glands in the body. However, we now know that the pituitary gland is itself controlled by the hypothalamus.

The diagram below shows an ovary with the stages of development of the ovum during an ovarian cycle. a) Arrange the following events in the ovarian cycle in the order in which they occur. In the spaces under the diagrams write a few words describing what is happening in the diagram above. The mixing of foetal and maternal blood in the placenta allows easy transfer of nutrients and oxygen to the foetus.

The parathyroid glands situated adjacent to the thyroid glands in the neck produce parathormone that regulates blood calcium levels and the excretion of phosphates. The follicle cells of the developing ova produce oestrogen, which controls the development of the mammary glands and prepares the uterus for pregnancy.

Ducts from the gland lead to a nipple or teat and there may be a sinus where the milk collects before being suckled.

The ovarian cycle refers to the series of changes in the ovary during which the follicle matures, the ovum is shed and the corpus luteum develops.
