Which major endocrine organs described in Figure 45.8 are regulatedindependently of the hypothalamus and pituitary?
Given that the anterior pituitary releases multiple hormones, how is it that a particular hypothalamus releasing hormone stimulates the secretion of a specific anterior pituitary hormone?
Identify molecule (1) in the pathway of hormonal regulation illustrated below:
(A) ion channel
(B) G protein-coupled receptor
(C) tyrosine kinase receptor
(D) cytoplasmic/nuclear receptor
