EXTEND
AA
NN The endocrine system is a network of glands that produce and release
hormones, serving as the body's chemical messaging system. These
hormones regulate various bodily functions, maintaining balance and
coordinating processes like growth, metabolism, reproduction, and stress

SS
response. The endocrine includes a number of glands in the system:
Pituitary gland, often referred to as the "master gland," controls other
glands and regulates growth, reproduction, and water balance. Thyroid
gland produces hormones that regulate metabolism and influence

WW
growth and development. Adrenal glands secrete hormones involved in
stress response (like adrenaline and cortisol) and regulate metabolism,
immune function, and blood pressure. Pancreas produces insulin and
glucagon, crucial for regulating blood sugar levels. Ovaries and Testes,

EE
also known as gonads, are responsible for releasing sex hormones like
estrogen and testosterone, influencing sexual development and
reproductive functions. Pineal gland produces melatonin, regulating the
sleep-wake cycle. As these glands secrete hormones into the
bloodstream, they travel throughout the body and bind to specific

RR receptors on target cells or organs to initiate various physiological

responses, maintaining overall balance and homeostasis in the body.
