THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
 This body system regulates the body’s activities by
secreting hormones.
 This system consist of ductless gland or organ
releasing hormone directly to the bloodstream.
 These hormones are chemicals travel from the glands
through the bloodstream and rush directly to the
tissues and organ they are needed and causes an
organ action to maintain internal balance.
The pituitary gland
The pineal Gland
The Adrenal gland

-Secret Adrenaline
(Epinephrine and
Norepinephrine) hormones
responsible for fight or
flight response.
The pancreas

-Secret insulin and

glucagon to regulate blood
sugar levels
The thyroid and parathyroid

-regulates
body
metabolism

-regulate bone
calcium levels
The thymus
 THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
 Homeostasis is the ability of an organism to maintain
internal equilibrium (balance) by regulating its processes.
 Just like in English a sentence is not complete if Noun is missing or
no subject and predicate.
 In ICT, the computer will not operate without its CPU. Even one part
of it is missing, it will not function well.
 Just like in Math, without operations, variable or signs, the equation
can never be called an equation.
