Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),controls the release of glucocorticoids from the adrenal cortex .

ACTH stimulates the adrenal cortex to produce glucocorticoids and adrenal androgens. Glucocorticoids, such as cortisol, function by maintaining blood glucose levels during fasting, preparing the body during physical and emotional stress, preventing inflammation, and suppressing the immune system.

Glucocorticoids are secreted by the middle region of the adrenal cortex. The principal glucocorticoid is cortisol, which increases blood glucose levels. The third group of steroids secreted by the adrenal cortex is the gonadocorticoids, or sex hormones. These are secreted by the innermost region.

1. (Carnivorous) They don't rely as much on the mechanical breakdown of foods in the mouth as much as they usually eat their prey whole. They also have U-shaped stomachs.They regurgitate indigestible things (e.g. Large Bones). They have shorter, spiralling intestines, but this means it also has a large surface area.

2. One difference is that humans have lungs so that is used to oxygenate the blood while shark has gills. Another difference is that Sharks use the heat from their muscles, so rather then expelling it into the outside environment that actually use that to heat their blood and transfer the heat from warmer blood to passing colder blood.

3. I positioned my shark to be dorsal side up and have its ventral side facing down.

4. The pectoral girdle is in a location where the cartilage is very thick.
