The position of endocrine organs have been indicated in red on the diagram of a composite male and female dog shown below. On the diagram of the brain below indicate the position of the Hypothalamus andPituitary gland. In the table below list 3 hormones produced by the pituitary gland and state the function of each.

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

On the diagram of the brain below indicate the position of the Hypothalamus andPituitary gland. In the table below list 3 hormones produced by the pituitary gland and state the function of each. Melatonin is the only hormone in the list not produced by the pituitary gland. Insulin is the only hormone in the list not produced by the adrenal gland.

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.

Upregulation enhances receptor sensitivity, as observed with estrogen in the ovary, while downregulation decreases receptors after extended exposure, as seen with progesterone. It also highlights complex hormonal interactions, including permissive, synergistic, and antagonistic effects among various hormones.
