The Endocrine System • A stimulus is received and processed. • Hormones are secreteddirectly into the blood. • They are carried to the target tissues (the place of intended action). • The action of the hormone changes the condition of the tissue. • This change in monitored through feedback. • Most hormonal change results in negativefeedback. • Key endocrine glands: • Pineal gland • Pituitary gland • Thyroid gland • Thymus • Adrenal gland • Pancreas • Ovary (female) • Testes (male) Endocrine glands from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endocrine_gland
