Learning Objective 4#

Using one or more examples, explain functions of two hormones in human behaviour



Hormone
 is a chemical that transmits information generated. From a group of cells in the endocrine glands and sent to the blood to different parts of the body to stimulate or inhibit the process in cells or organs controls the process. In the body, such as help in the growth help humans can reproduce the offspring and it also affects human behaviors.

Endocrine System 
 Endocrine system A system that produces a substance called hormone glands that no pipe or orifice. So it's conveying those substances in the bloodstream to organs. In order to control the operation of various hormones will work in cooperation with the nervous system. We called the endocrine system and the nervous system Coordinate system. Hormones that are produced  by endocrine must fit with the body and have much enough effect to cause the behaviour in organism to happen  If the hormones are too much or too little can cause various diseases, such as diabetes, goiter or more diseases associated with the growth of the body and so on.


                 1. The pituitary gland is a small sphere that is divided into two parts: the pituitary gland, the pituitary front (anterior pituitary or adenohypophysis) and pituitary rear (posterior pituitary or neurohypophysis)  is the controller of the body There are several key functions such as hormone controls the growth of the body and bones. And a hormone that causes blood pressure to rise. And the compression of the uterus in females when giving birth. It also controls the function of the endocrine glands such as thyroid gland, adrenal glands, as well as control the reproduction

                  2. The adrenal gland have a function like substance secreted from nerve ends automatically. It stimulates the body to prepare. General vascular contraction and blood pressure rise. The outer hormones regulate metabolism (cortisol) and hormonal control absorption remaining kidney. (aldosterone)

                  3. Thyroid gland is a gland that are connected to each other and located next to the larynx and trachea. This gland is larger with age, sex, and nutritional status. Acting hormone called thyroxin, which is vital to the growth of the body..

                  4. Parathyroid gland are small glands that have 2 pairs adjacent to thyroid gland .Parathyroid hormone acts as a hormone that regulates the amount of calcium in the blood and maintain the pH in the body at the proper level.

                  5. islets of langerhans is a gland that produces hormones and insulin. Its function is to control the amount of sugar in the body. Without this hormone, causes diabetes. I can not change glucose into glycogen stored in the muscles or in the liver.

                  6. Ovary in females and Testis in males . The ovaries produce egg and hormone which is estrogen hormone and progesterone hormone that controls the appearance of the female , voice, high pitched voice ,bigger hips, such as the expansion of the breast. And the Testis produces sperm and male hormones which is Testosterone to control the appearance of the male such as lower voice ,having hair on genital area armpit or legs.


                  7. Thymus gland is a gland that is shaped like a pyramid with a flat side 2 cloves size and shape varies with age. Large in newborns and will gradually smaller when initiated into adulthood. Controls the functioning of the immune system of the body.


When we approach a young age then. It's time for the body to produce testosterone Testosterone out that this is the most important of the male sex hormone. It will stimulate the expression of male out. Lower voice ,growing hair on the body and produce sperm have a big muscles and bones and strong. Love the competition or something challenging and sometime this hormones can make men feel stressed anxious, depressed than usual as well, making the body more attractive opposite sex and have a sexual desire. 


Estrogen is a hormone the body produces when it is in the maturity. The eggs in the ovaries of women to stimulate the body to produce the hormone estrogen ,have glowing skin ,good shape  It is also  makes vitamin D combined with calcium to build bones. Researchers from the University of Texas have provided that information. Hormones in the body, resulting in various reactions and gestures during menstruation. Most women like to dress sexy and has a dramatic emotion especially comparing themselves with other women. And it can cause the stress ,moods swinging ,aggressive because of the level of hormone changing in the body mostly happen to teenagers. 

Conclusion 
  • Both hormones showed that some of our behaviors we're facing right now maybe because of hormones.
