Biology

maria [59]3 years ago

Cell replication is meant to be a very regulated process. Messages are sent to the cell, telling it when to duplicate and when not to. When cells divide according to their natural plan, then there are no problems. However, when cells either do not receive those messages or misinterpret them, they can divide too fast and without pause. These renegade cells are what we call cancer cells.

Briefly describe about pituitary gland in our body.​
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Pituitary gland, also called hypophysis, ductless gland of the endocrine system that secretes hormones directly into the bloodstream. The term hypophysis (from the Greek for “lying under”)—another name for the pituitary—refers to the gland's position on the underside of the brain.Your pituitary (hypophysis) is a pea-sized endocrine gland at the base of your brain, behind the bridge of your nose and directly below your hypothalamus. It sits in an indent in the sphenoid bone called the sella turcica. The pituitary gland is one of eight interrelated major endocrine glands: Pineal gland.Through secretion of its hormones, the pituitary gland controls metabolism, growth, sexual maturation, reproduction, blood pressure and many other vital physical functions and processes.There are four hormones secreted by the anterior pituitary gland that control the functions of other endocrine glands. These hormones include thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormones (LH).
