SUMMARY OF REQUIRED ANATOMICAL STRUCTURES
- Pituitary gland - pea-sized gland located in the sella turcica of the sphenoid bone; called the “master gland”
- Pineal gland - pea-sized gland located in the epithalamus, near the center of the brain, between the two hemispheres; produces melatonin
- Thyroid gland - located on the anterior surface of the larynx; butterfly-shaped organ, has two lobes connected by the isthmus; makes thyroid hormone and calcitonin
- Adrenal gland (aka suprarenal) - a triangular shaped gland located on the superior surface of the kidney; made up of an adrenal cortex and adrenal medulla; helps the body deal with stress; produces epinephrine, norepinephrine, aldosterone, and cortisol
- Pancreas - long, slender organ; located posterior to the stomach; helps regulate blood sugar by secreting insulin and glucagon
- Testicles - paired oval organs in the male reproductive system; located in the scrotum; secrete testosterone
- Ovaries - paired oval organs in the female reproductive system; located in the pelvic cavity lateral to the uterus; secrete estrogens and progesterone
