Answer:
The major glands of the endocrine system are the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroids, adrenals, pineal body, and the reproductive organs (ovaries and testes). The pancreas is also a part of this system; it has a role in hormone production as well as in digestion.
Hypothalamus- hypothalamus is a part of the brain that has a vital role in controlling many bodily functions including the release of hormones from the pituitary gland.
pituitary- The pituitary gland is a small, bean-shaped gland situated at the base of your brain, somewhat behind your nose and between your ears. Despite its small size, the gland influences nearly every part of your body.
thyroid- thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland in your neck, just above your collarbone. It is one of your endocrine glands, which make hormones. Thyroid hormones control the rate of many activities in your body. These include how fast you burn calories and how fast your heart beats.
parathyroids- Parathyroid glands are four small glands of the endocrine system which regulate the calcium in our bodies. Parathyroid glands are located in the neck behind the thyroid where they continuously monitor and regulate blood calcium levels.
adrenals-Adrenal glands, also known as suprarenal glands, are small, triangular-shaped glands located on top of both kidneys.
pineal body- The main function of the pineal gland is to receive and convey information about the current light-dark cycle from the environment and, consequently produce and secrete melatonin cyclically at night (dark period)
Ovaries and testes- Testes and ovaries are structurally and functionally different organs, but they originate from the same gonadal primordium. ... Ovaries and testes are morphologically and functionally different organs, producing eggs and sperm, respectively, but are derived from the same sexually indifferent gonadal primordium.
