The hypothalamus secretes corticotropin releasing hormone (crh) onto the anterior pituitary to stimulate secretion of

For Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis of endocrine gland secretion, follow the root "CORTI" (C). This will be a great memory tool. Also, nearly all hypothalamic hormones that stimulate anterior pituitary secretion have the word RELEASING (hence "R" in their acronyms). So if asked what secretes CRH, GnRH, TRH, or GHRH... the answer will be the Hypothalamus because of the R.
Now... back to CRH... we're following the "C" for CORTI. What other endocrine hormone has C for CORTI??
ACTH = Adreno[Corti]coTropic Hormone
Which will then stimulate secretion of [Corti]sol (a glucocorticoid), amongst others from the cortex of the adrenal gland. Notice the [Corti] follows the whole pathway from Hypothalamus to adrenal Cortex: Hypothal. (CRH) --> Ant. Pituit. (ACTH) --> Adrenal Cortex (Cortisol)
Sorry this was so long-winded, but I was hoping to help you grasp a portion of how the Endocrine System works!
Good luck and hmu should you have any further Anatomy/Physiology questions.

Which pair of terms concerning the osmotic effect of a solution on red blood cells is mismatched?
QveST [7]
Even though there are no choices given in this particular question, the principle of osmosis is very easy to understand. 

When we talk about osmosis, we are referring to the movement of water from a low concentration to a higher concentration. This is different from diffusion, which talks specifically about the movement of <em>solutes</em> in the solution (from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.)

When an RBC is placed inside a <em>hypertonic </em>solution, the water inside the RBC will go out thereby shrinking the RBC.

Inside an <em>isotonic</em> solution, the RBC will remain the same because the concentrations are equal.

Inside a <em>hypotonic</em> solution, the RBC will lyse or explode because water will move from the solution going inside the RBC.

Serjik [45]
<span>Three months after fertilization and development of a placenta around the developing fetus, the corpus luteum regresses and forms the corpus albicans.</span> Formed placenta takes over progesterone production (which was the role of corpus luteum) and the corpus luteum degrades into a corpus albicans. The corpus luteum is being broken down by macrophages, in a process called luteolysis. The remains of the corpus albicans may persist as a scar on the ovary.
