Course 17 · Unit III

Endocrine

Class 17. Ductless glands as a clock. Pineal, hypothalamus, pituitary. One story: the pineal makes serotonin; when light falls, two enzymes go down the stem; melatonin in the brain stem. Anterior builds, posterior stores. Thymus is named on the scatter, not as a target of the pea. Extra credit: the three in one head. A dose you write does not enter. Known endocrine disease, a pregnant body, a child, a hormone on a chart, a blow to the head: you stop.
