What to Focus On
- Endocrine glands are ductless glands.
- Exocrine glands secrete through ducts.
- Hormones are chemical messengers released in trace amounts.
- Hypothalamus controls the pituitary.
- ADH and oxytocin are synthesized in the hypothalamus.
- Anterior pituitary is adenohypophysis.
- GH stimulates body growth.
- GH deficiency causes dwarfism.
- GH excess causes gigantism or acromegaly.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Vasopressin and oxytocin are produced by the posterior pituitary.
The posterior pituitary is a true gland that secretes its own hormones.
Growth hormone is always responsible for tall height, so more GH is always better.
