(F) Target 1-9 Identify why we have an endocrine system (F/H) Target 4-9 Identify the main parts of the endocrine system and place them within the human body (H) Target 5-9 Describe the role of the endocrine system Extension: Application of Knowledge Target 8/9 Compare the nervous system to the endocrine system Learning Outcomes

The Endocrine System The endocrine system is composed of glands which secrete chemicals called hormones directly into the bloodstream. The blood carries the hormone to a target organ where it produces an effect.

The Pituitary Gland The pituitary gland in the brain is a ‘master gland’ which secretes several hormones into the blood in response to body conditions. These hormones in turn act on other glands to stimulate other hormones to be released to bring about effects.

Nervous vs Endocrine Compared to the nervous system the effects are slower but act for longer.
