Match each endocrine gland or cell cluster listed on the left with its corresponding primary hormone secretion and physiological action on the right.
- Islets of Langerhans (Beta cells)Secretes insulin to lower blood glucose levels by promoting glycogenesis.
- Adrenal medullaSecretes adrenaline (epinephrine) to initiate emergency fight-or-flight responses.
- Parathyroid glandsSecretes parathormone to elevate blood calcium levels by stimulating bone resorption.
- Anterior pituitary glandSecretes thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) to stimulate thyroxine release.
Cevap
The Islets of Langerhans (Beta cells) match with insulin secretion for blood glucose reduction; the Adrenal medulla matches with adrenaline release for fight-or-flight response; the Parathyroid glands match with parathormone secretion for calcium regulation; and the Anterior pituitary gland matches with thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) secretion.
Each gland is paired directly with its specific secretor product and physiological role: Islets of Langerhans (Beta cells) with insulin action on blood sugar, Adrenal medulla with adrenaline for fight-or-flight response, Parathyroid glands with parathormone for blood calcium increase, and Anterior pituitary gland with TSH for thyroid control.
