Slow-Wave sleep stage, aka Stages 3 and 4
Slow-Wave sleep, or stages 3 and 4. they are both correct because they are the same thing.
There are 7 different hormones released from the hypothalamus. They all are regulatory hormones that act on the anterior pituitary with the exception of prolactin inhibitory hormone. Most of them have a positive influence on the anterior pituitary, but there is also a negative influence on the growth hormone release.The 7 different hormones released are:GHRH (Growth hormone releasing hormone) - counteracted by another hormone released from the hypothalamus called Somatostatin, which blocks hormone release. (+)Growth hormone release inhibitory hormone - Somatostatin (-)CRH (Corticotropin releasing hormone) - acts on the adrenal glands to stimulate corticoid metabolism (+)TRH (Thyrotropin releasing hormone) - act on target cells within the pituitary gland (+)Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) - acts on target cells within the anterior pituitary to stimulate thyroid hormone production. (+)Prolactin inhibitory hormone - Dopamine(-)PRH (Prolactin releasing hormone) (+)
The pineal body which is located posterior to the hypothalamus is a smooth, fingertip-shaped tissue that secretes the hormone melatonin. It maintains the body's internal clock and the 24-hour wake-sleep cycle and regulates the onset and duration of sleep.
The hypothalamo-hypophyseal system does. The hypothalamus releases a hormone called GHRH (growth hormone releasing hormone) or somatocrinin, which migrates via bloodstream to the front part hypophysis (also known as the pituitary gland) through the hypophyseal stalk. GHRH stimulates the frontal lobe of the hypophysis to secrete growth hormone (mostly when we sleep), which in turn stimulates cell division and growth throughout the body, but most evidently in the muscular and skeletal system. There is also an inhibitory hormone in the hypothalamus, somatostatin, which decreases growth hormone production in the hypophysis.
One of the most important functions of the hypothalamus is to connect the nervous system to the endocrine system via the pituitary gland. It is also responsible for certain metabolic processes and other activities of the autonomic nervous system.

No, the pineal gland and the pituitary gland are not the same. The pituitary gland is located below the hypothalamus connected to it by the infundibulum. The pituitary is responsible for the secretion of oxytocin, antidiuretic hormone, melanocyte-stimulating hormone, thyroid- stimulating hormone, prolactin, adrenocorticotropic hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and growth hormone. In contrast, the pineal gland is part of the epithalamus attached to the third ventricle. Cells of the pineal gland convert serotonin to melatonin which helps regulate the body's circadian rhythms.
Yes sleeping does help you to grow taller. This is because during sleep the pituitary gland produces and releases the growth hormone into the bloodstream. The growth hormone cause the bones to become stronger and lengthen.
Serotonin which Controls mood, appetite, and sleep. Ghrelin which stimulates appetite, secretion of growth hormone from anterior pituitary gland Leptin which causes decrease of appetite and increase of metabolism.

Melatonin is the hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles in the body. Produced by the pineal gland, melatonin levels typically rise in the evening, signaling to the body that it is time to sleep. Disruption in melatonin production can lead to sleep disorders.
The pineal gland releases melatonin, which regulates sleep/wake cycles. The adrenal glands release epinephrine, which is the fight or flight hormone.

It would be an overstatement that a gland is responsible for sleep, however, the pineal gland does have some connection to sleep. It secretes a hormone called melatonin which contributes to sleepiness.
Pineal gland synthesizes the hormone melatonin,which is important for sleep.
The hormone melatonin, which is secreted by the pineal gland.
