adrenaline
The adrenal cortex produces a battery of steroids (glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids - mainly hydrocortisone and aldosterone), but it doesn't produce adrenalin. Adrenalin is released by the adrenal medulla which occupies the interior of the adrenal gland

What releases hormones from the adrenal cortex?
The adrenocorticotropic hormone, that is released from the anterior pituitary gland is responsible for the release of hormones from the adrenal gland. The adrenal cortex hormones are essential for the survival of the individual. They make you able to face the stresses of life.
What stimulates secretion of hormones by the adrenal cortex?
adrenocorticotropic
What hormones stimulates the adrenal cortex to release glucocorticoids that help the body to resist stressors?
Adrenocorticotropic hormone
What is the body's major metabolic hormone called?
The body's major metabolic hormone is called the thyroid hormone.
What hormone stimulates the secrtetion of hormones by the cortex of the adrenal glands?
AcTH stimulates the gland.It is produced in Interir pitutory

{| |- | adrenocorticotropic |}
What is adrenal cortex?
You have the cortex and medulla in the adrenal gland. You have zona glomerulosa, zona fasciculata and zona reticularis in the cortex. It mainly secrets the hormones cortisol and hydrocortisones along with little sex hormones.
What is Adrenocorticotropin?
A hormone that acts on cells of the adrenal cortex, causing them to produce male sex hormones and hormones that control water and mineral balance in the body.
What is ACTH?
ACTH _____Triggers secretion of adrenal cortex hormones
What are the hormones that are secreted from the adrenal cortex?
Aldosterone, Cortisol and some testosterone are all secreted by the adrenal cortex
What hormone releases organ?
adrenal cortex
ACTH stimulates the adrenal cortex to release corticosteroid hormones?
Yes. ACTH = AdrenoCorticoTropic Hormone. It acts on the Fasciculata and Reticulata areas of the adrenal cortex, stimulating the release of Glucocorticoids (Cortisol) and to a lesser degree, of weak Androgens.
