Control of Hormonal Secretions Control Sources: - Hypothalamous stimulates other glands secretes hormone. - Another group of glands responds directly to changes in the composition of the internal environment. - The nerve cell stimulate the gland responds to the nerve impulse Negativefeedback -Control many hormonal secretions Estrogen - Its function is to stimulate the release of GnRH from hypothalamus and LH from anterior pituitary glands. |
