to secrete

thirst

ketone bodies

pancreas

the adrenal cortex secretes steroid hormones and the adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine 

regulate carbohydrate metabolism and salt and water balance

steroid produced by the testes

affect sympathetic nervous system in stress response 

secretes estrogen and progesterone 

the development of female secondary sex characteristics and regulation of reproduction 

secretes insulin and glucagon

regulates carbohydrate/sugar metabolism

secretes parathyroid hormone (PTH)

regulates calcium and phosphorus metabolism

secretes melatonin and serotonin

affects onset of puberty

serves as the precursor to melatonin

makes hormones that affect growth and functions of the body 

influences the absorption of water by kidney tubules

influences uterine contraction

secretes testosterone 

secretes thymosin, which regulates immune response 

secretes triiodothyronine, thyroxine, and calcitonin

protrusion of one or both eyeballs

chemical processes in the body that result in growth, generation of energy, and elimination of waste

excessive thirst

excessive urination

disorder caused by exposure to high levels of the hormone cortisol. symptoms are upper body obesity, facial puffiness, weakness, thin skin

disorder caused by an abnormal utilization of insuin

patient is dependent on insulin for survival

the patient is not dependent on insulin for survival

excessive amount of insulin that draws sugar out of the blood 

hypersecretion of the parathyroid glands

hyposecretion of the parathyroid glands

secretes hormones that regulate the function of other glands 

enlarged features caused by the hypersecretion of the pituitary hormone after puberty 

abnormal increase in urine output

congenital hyposecreetion of growth hormone 

hypersecretion of growth hormone leads to an abnormal overgrowth of bone 

enlargement of the thyroid gland

condition of hypersecretion of the thyroid gland 

low thyroid levels in the blood 

advanced hypothyroidism in adults

congenital hypothyroidism in children that results in a lack of mental development and dwarfed physical sature

measuring the level of sugar in the blood

measurement of blood sugar levels after a fast of 12 hours

measurement of blood sugar level after a meal

measurements of the body's ability to metabolize carbs

molecule that rises in the blood from an increased level of blood sugar 

measurement of the level of specific ions in the blood

used to obtain a transverse view of the pituitary gland 

scan of the thyroid to detect thyroid tumors
