In vertebrates, hormone production by the endocrine system is often controlled, either directly or indirectly, by the nervous system. Two endocrine glands in the brain, the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland, play central roles in integrating the nervous and endocrine systems. The hypothalamus receives input from nerves throughout the body and brain, and initiates a response via the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland is made up of the posterior pituitary and anterior pituitary, two separate glands that fuse together during development. Both the posterior pituitary and anterior pituitary release a number of hormones that send signals throughout the body. Some hypothalamic and pituitary hormones, and their abbreviations, are listed below. Hormone Abbreviation thyrotropin-releasing hormone TRH gonadotropin-releasing hormone GnRH antidiuretic hormone ADH thyroid-stimulating hormone (thyrotropin) TSH prolactin PRL follicle-stimulating hormone FSH luteinizing hormone LH Part A - Endocrine glands in the human brain Each of the following phrases describes the structure, function, or regulation of either the hypothalamus, posterior pituitary, or anterior pituitary. Sort the phrases into the appropriate bins depending on whether they describe the hypothalamus, posterior pituitary, or anterior pituitary.
