epididymis
all located in the testes
seminifurous tubules (sertoli cells here)
sertoli cells
leydig cells
epididymis
glands that help in formation of semen
seminal vesicle
prostate gland
bulbourethral (cowpers) gland
what is the master gland
pituitary gland
main gland that controls all other organs/hormones in the body)
pituitary gland parts
anterior pituitary
posterior pituitary
hormones in the anterior pituitary
GH
TSH
ACTH
Prolactin
LH
FSH
LH & FSH together known as
gonadotropins
GH hormone (somatotropin)
growth hormone
promotes protein synthesis, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, and bone and skeletal muscle growth
TSH hormone (thyrotropin)
thyroid stimulating hormone
stimulates the thyroid to secrete its hormones
ACTH
adrenocorticotropic hormone
stimulate adrenal cortex to produce cortisol
stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete corticosteroids
prolactin
stimulates milk production in females
LH (luteinizing hormone or Gonadotrophins )
main hormone for secretion of estrogen, progesterone in females
the secretion of testosterone by the testes in males
for ovulation
FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone)
used for stimulating follices
stimulates the production of eggs in the ovaries of females
stimulates sperm in the testes of males
hormones in the posterior pituitary
oxytocin
ADH (vasopressin)
oxytocin
contracting uterus in birth
stimulates contraction of the uterus during childbirth and triggers the release of breast milk during lactation
ADH (antidiuretic hormone or vasopressin)
acts on the kidneys to reduce urine volume and prevent dehydration
water reabsorption by the kidneys so it prevents dehydration
thyroid gland produces
calcitonin (triggers the deposition of calcium in the bone)
T3 (triiodothyronine)
T4 (thyroxine)
parathyroid gland produces
PTH (parathyroid hormone)
calcitonin secreted by thyroid gland - increases?
increases bone absorption of calcium
reduces calcium levels in the blood
PTH (parathyroid hormone) - function (increase, decrease)
increases bone reabsorption
increases calcium levels in blood
decreases phosphorous levels in the blood
pineal gland
Produces melatonin
needed for sleep
adrenal medulla hormones
epinephrine
norepinephrine
fight or flight hormones
adrenal cortex hormones
aldosterone - maintains blood volume
cortisol - increases carbohydrates and protein metabolism
sex steroids - androgen, estrogen, testosterone
adrenal glands - two parts
located on top of each kidney
adrenal medulla (inner portion)
adrenal cortex (outer portion)
pancreas - has both endocrine & exocrine functions
endocrine function: produces hormones
exocrine function: produces enzymes
endocrine function - in pancreas
hormones of pancreas produced by Islets of Langerhans (pancreatic islets)
Contain three types of cells: alpha cells, beta cells, and delta cells
alpha cells of islet of langerhan: produce glucagon
beta cells of islet of langerhans: produce insulin
alpha cells secrete glucagon - function
stimulates the liver to start gluconeogenesis, releasing glucose into the bloodstream between meals
Beta cells secrete insulin - function
stimulates cells to absorb glucose and amino acids after eating
what maintains blood sugar level
Alpha cells – glucagon
beta cells – insulin
Delta cells secrete somatostatin - function
inhibits the release of both glucagon and insulin when not needed, as well as the release of growth hormone
pancreas cells that secrete hormones are called
islets of langerhans
pancreas cells that produce digestive enzymes are called
acinar cells

Epiglottis
covers the glottis
the epiglottis is a flap on top of the glottis that prevents the food from entering the larynx.
trachea has
c shaped cartilage
they help the trachea but also allow it to move and flex
bronchial tree (primary - secondary)
Trachea branches into the primary (right and left bronchi) at the carina
Primary bronchi branch into secondary bronchi that go to each lobe of the lung
Secondary bronchi branch into tertiary bronchi
Tertiary bronchi branch into bronchioles
Bronchioles divide to form alveolar ducts
Alveolar ducts lead to alveolar sacs
