How is the relationship between adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis different?

The adenohypophysis, also known as the anterior pituitary gland, produces and secretes its own hormones under the control of releasing hormones from the hypothalamus. In contrast, the neurohypophysis, or posterior pituitary gland, stores and releases hormones produced by the hypothalamus, including oxytocin and vasopressin, which are transported down axons from the hypothalamus.


The hox genes are a series of genes that control?

The hox genes are a series of genes that control the body plan of an organism during development. They help determine the placement and structure of body parts along the anterior-posterior axis. Mutations in hox genes can lead to developmental abnormalities.


What anterior pituitary hormone stimulates growth?

Hormones secreted by the anterior pituitary are trophic hormones and tropic hormones. Trophic hormones directly affect growth on the tissue it is stimulating. The cells are glandular not nervous as in the posterior pituitary gland. The posterior acts indirectly.


What muscles are in the tripod muscles?

The tripod muscles are made up of the lateral rectus, medial rectus, and inferior oblique muscles in the eye. These muscles work together to control eye movements and help maintain proper alignment and coordination.


What is the right internal capsule of the brain?

The internal capsule is a white matter structure in the brain that carries signals between the cerebral cortex and the brainstem. It is divided into anterior and posterior limbs, with the posterior limb containing fibers that control movement and sensation. Damage to the internal capsule can result in motor and sensory deficits.

You had two abortions and when they performed the second one you started to hemorrhage what does this mean?

A hemorrhage is very heavy bleeding which is difficult to control. If you have an injury anywhere on your body and the bleeding cannot be controlled, that is called a hemorrhage. It is nothing to do with the fact it was your second abortion. Wmen can hemmorrhage while pregnant, in labor, and after the baby is born. You may hemorrhage with a miscarriage.

Movements of the knee are made possible by the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments is true?

No, movements of the knee are primarily enabled by the interaction of the femur, tibia, and patella within the joint, supported by a system of ligaments and tendons. The anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments specifically help to stabilize and provide rotational control to the knee joint rather than directly facilitating the movements themselves.


What are posterior nosebleeds?

Posterior nosebleeds originate from the back of the nose near the throat and are often more severe and harder to control than anterior nosebleeds which come from the front of the nose. They may be caused by conditions such as high blood pressure, bleeding disorders, or nasal trauma. Immediate medical attention is usually required to stop the bleeding.


What are Hox genes?

Hox genes are a group of related genes that are specific for the anterior and posterior axis of an organism in embryonic development. They assist in the formation of segments in the developing animal.


What is posterior nose bleed?

A posterior nosebleed occurs when bleeding originates from the back part of the nasal cavity, often involving the branches of the maxillary or sphenopalatine artery. Unlike anterior nosebleeds, which are more common and usually cause bleeding from the front of the nose, posterior nosebleeds can be more severe and harder to control. They may result from factors like hypertension, trauma, or underlying health conditions. Treatment often requires medical intervention, such as cauterization or nasal packing.

Name the master of the anterior pituitary gland?

The master of the anterior pituitary gland is the hypothalamus. It secretes releasing and inhibiting hormones that control the release of hormones from the anterior pituitary gland.


How does the anterior pituitary regulate the thyroid gland?

The hypothalmus is connected to the pituitary by the hypophyseal portal system. This is a network of capillary beds that allows the hypothalmus to control the release of hormones from the anterior and posterior pituitaryThe two pituitary lobes are the dual origin of the hypothalmus. The posterior pituitary lobe is part of the brain and is a "downgrowth" of hypothalmic tissue and maintains a neural connection with the hypothalmus through a nerve bundle called the hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract. This arises from neurons of the hypothalmus. These cells synthesize two neurohormones and transport them along their axons to the posterior pituitary. Then these neurons "fire" they release the stored hormones into a capillary bed in the posterioir pituitary for distribution throughout the body.The hypothalamus is connected to the pituitary gland by both blood vessels and neural tissue. The posterior pituitary is actually part of the brain and receives input from the hypothalamus via neural connections. The anterior pituitary gland is controlled by the hypothalamus when the latter releases tropic hormones (hormones that control release of other hormones) into the blood portal. The hormones diffuse through the blood and act on the anterior pituitary gland, initiated the release of subsequent hormones.The hypothalamus controls both the anterior and posterior pituitary functioning with neurosecretions that either release or inhibit hormones. These secretions are produced in the ventral hypothalamus
