Endocrine Mix and Match
Match the hormone(s) to the gland that secretes it
Ovaries
Thyroid
Testes
Pineal
Parathyroid
Anterior Pituitary
Adrenal
Posterior Pituitary
Pancreas
Match hormone with its action
Estrogen
T3/T4
Testosterone
Melatonin
Glucagon
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Insulin

For each scenario, use y our cards to generate a pathway to respond to the stimulus. Include: - Name of gland(s)
- hormone(s)
- target organ
- action
Calcium Levels in the blood are too low
A woman is in the beginning stages of labor
A man is running a marathon and is starting to get dehydrated
Necessary growth of the skeleton in a growing child
Maintaining an adult's metabolic rate
A person is dealing with the long-term stress of dealing with an aging parent
A person's blood sodium and blood pressure has decreased
Sperm and egg production
Sperm and egg production
A woman is breastfeeding
Dusk is approaching on a winter night and you are getting tired
You eat a candy bar and your blood gucose levels have risen too high
You haven't eaten in hours and your blood glucose levels are too low
Growth Hormone
targets muscle and bone to stimulate growth
Ovaries
Estrogen Progesterone
Pineal Gland
Melatonin
Luteinizing Hormone
Triggers ovulation in ovaries Promotes testosterone production in testes
Anterior Pituitary
Growth Hormone TSH ACTH LH Prolactin FSH
Testes
Testosterone
Oxytocin
causes uterine contractions during childbirth causes milk ejection when breastfeeding
Insulin
Targets all cells; decreases blood glucose
Pancreas
Glucagon Insulin
Thyroid Gland
T3 T4 Calcitonin
Melatonin
regulates sleep cycles

Stimulates egg production in ovaries and sperm production in testes
Posterior Pituitary
Oxytocin ADH
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
increases blood calcium; targets bone
Prolactin
breastmilk production
T3/T4
increases metabolism; targets all cells
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
Targets thyroid to cause it to release T3/T4
Aldosterone
regulates salt/water balance (increases salt in blood which increases water in blood)
Estrogen & progesterone
Maturation of female reproductive organs and breast development. Thickens uterine lining & keeps it thick during pregnancy
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
Targets adrenal glands to release cortisol
Cortisol
helps you manage stress by increasing glucose production
Testosterone
sperm production Secondary sex characteristics of males - deepening voice, facial hair, muscle development
