The Adrenal Gland.

This gland is divided into two categories, the Adrenal Cortex and the Adrenal Medulla.

The Adrenal Medulla produced epinephrine and norepinephrine.

Epinephrine is also known as adrenaline, and the beginning of the word, "adrenal", is the same name as the gland, The Adrenal Gland.

If the connection between the anterior pituitary and the hypothalamus were severed how would this effect the secretion of epinephrine?

The connection between the anterior pituitary and the hypothalamus is necessary for survival because specific releasing hormones in the hypothalamus trigger the production and release of hormones made in the ant. pit. Seeing how the secretion of epinephrine would be triggered in the adrenal medula by a hormone produced in the ant. pit., I believe that the secretion of epinephrine would not occur if the connection between the hypothalamus and ant. pit. were to be severed.
