Question

below are histology slides of six endocrine glands. place the appropriate hormones with the glands they are secreted from. labels drop zones reset all insulin 1 (1/6) 2 (2/6) 3 (3/6) pth calcitonin thyroxine oxytocin fsh growth hormone cortisol 4 (4/6) 5 (5/6) 6 (6/6) glucagon

Explanation:

Insulin is secreted by the pancreas. PTH (parathyroid hormone) is secreted by the parathyroid glands. Calcitonin is secreted by the thyroid - C cells in the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is secreted by the thyroid gland. Oxytocin is secreted by the posterior pituitary. FSH (follicle - stimulating hormone) is secreted by the anterior pituitary. Growth hormone is secreted by the anterior pituitary. Cortisol is secreted by the adrenal cortex. Glucagon is secreted by the pancreas. However, without specific histological features to identify each gland precisely, we rely on general knowledge of hormone - gland associations.

Answer:

Insulin - Pancreas
PTH - Parathyroid glands
Calcitonin - Thyroid gland
Thyroxine - Thyroid gland
Oxytocin - Posterior pituitary
FSH - Anterior pituitary
Growth Hormone - Anterior pituitary
Cortisol - Adrenal cortex
Glucagon - Pancreas
