To what specific part of the brain does the infundibulum connect to the pituitary gland?
The infundibulum connects the hypothalamus of the brain to the pituitary gland.
What is the link of the pituitary gland and body tissue?
The pituitary is linked to the brain by the infundibulum of the hypothalamus. It exerts its regulatory effects on the rest of the body by releasing tropic hormones into the blood.
What is the stalk of pituitary gland?
The infundibulum.
How do releasing hormones of the hypothalamus connect the nervous and endocrine system?
Hypothalamus controls the posterior pituitary gland which is connected with axons. Thus the hypothalamus synthesizes oxytocin and anti-diuretic hormones which are then packaged in secretory vesicles and moved to axons. When axon terminals are triggered, the hormones are released in the capillaries of posterior pituitary.
What part of brain is pituitary located?

To what specific part of the brain does the infundibulum connect to the pituitary gland?
The infundibulum connects the hypothalamus of the brain to the pituitary gland.
Infundibulum connects the hypothalamus to what?
pituitary gland
Is the hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract partly contained in the infundibulum?
yeah the infundibulum connects the hypothalamus and the neurohypophysis
What is the function of the infundibulum?
connects the posterior pituitary and hypothalamus
What is the anotomical relationship between the hypothalamus and posterior pituitary?
They are attached by infundibulum , posterior pituitary is actually continuation of hypothalamus .
Which endocrine gland that is composed of an anterior and posterior lobes hangs from the infundibulum below the hypothalamus?
The pituitary gland hangs from a stalk from the inferior surface of the hypothalamus of the brain.
What does the infundibulum connect?

What is the infundibulum?
The infundibulum is a funnel-shaped structure at the top of the chickens oviduct. When a follicle ruptures and drops an ovum it lands in the infundibulum. This happens shortly after ovulation. The infundibulum captures the mature ovum and while in the infundibulum, the egg is fertilized if sperm is available. It is while in the infundibulum that the very first layer of albumen is deposited. The infundibulum holds the roosters sperm sac which can supply the germinal disk for each ovum for as much as 10 to 14 days.
How does the TRH travel from the hypothalamus to the pituaitary gland?
The hypothalamus sends releasing hormones to the pituitary gland down through a salk of tissue called the infundibulum. It tells it which hormones to make and when to make them.
What are two aways the hypothalamus sends mesasge to the pituitary glands?
for the anterior pituitary gland it is through the blood capillaries located in the infundibulum and for the posterior pituitary gland it is through the axons in the neurons running through the infundibulum
How is the anterior pituitary connected to the hypothalamus?
The hypothalamus is connected to the pituitary gland in two ways. One is via the hypophyseal portal system, which is a system of blood vessels that connects parts of the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary gland. The hypothalamus secretes hormones into this portal system and the hormones act on the anterior pituitary to trigger the synthesis/secretion of pituitary hormones. The other is a direct anatomical connection between the hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary gland. In fact, the posterior pituitary gland is actually just an extension of the hypothalamus. When we talk about hormones released by the posterior pituitary, we're actually talking about hormones made and released by the hypothalamus. It just so happens that with the naked eye, it looks like the anterior and posterior pituitary are all part of one big pituitary gland. But microscopically, functionally and anatomically, the pituitary gland is just an outgrowth of the hypothalamus.
The pituitary gland is attached to the hypothalamus by the?
It's called Pituitary Stalk, pituitary is sometimes called the hypophysis.Please see related link below!
