    Here is a 3 sentence paragraph explaining the importance of the Endocrine System: The Endocrine System is crucial for maintaining homeostasis and proper functioning of the body's processes. It regulates metabolism, growth and development, tissue function, sexual function, reproduction, sleep, and mood through the secretion of hormones. When the Endocrine System is working properly, it helps keep the body's biological processes balanced and coordinated.

    Learning Objectives
    In this lesson, students should be able to do the following

    . Determine the parts and functions of the Endocrine


    System.

    Explain how the organs and glands of the Endocrine


    . System work together.

    . Develop healthful habits that promote proper


    functioning of the different body systems.
    Do you know what an Orchestra is?
    Lets find out and learn,
    talk, explore and
    discover the
    Endocrine System
    What is the Endocrine
    System?
    The endocrine system is a complex
    network of glands and organs. It uses
    hormones to control and coordinate your
    body's metabolism, energy level,
    reproduction, growth and development,
    and response to injury, stress, and mood.
    What are Hormones?
    Hormones are chemicals that
    coordinate different functions in
    your body by carrying messages
    through your blood to your
    organs, skin, muscles and other
    tissues. These signals tell your
    body what to do and when to do
    it.
    The Endocrine
    System has
    10 major parts.
    Parts and Functions of the
    Endocrine System
    The Brain
    The Endocrine System- Hypothalamus
    Your hypothalamus, a structure
    deep in your brain, acts as your
    body's smart control
    coordinating center. Its main
    function is to keep your body in
    a stable state called
    homeostasis. It does its job by
    directly influencing your
    autonomic nervous system or
    by managing hormones.
    The Endocrine System- Pineal gland
    also called the pineal body or
    epiphysis cerebri, is a tiny gland
    in your brain that's located
    beneath the back part of the
    corpus callosum. It's a part of
    your endocrine system and
    secretes the hormone
    melatonin.
    The Endocrine System- Pituitary Gland
    The major endocrine gland. A
    pea-sized body attached to the
    base of the brain, the pituitary
    is important in controlling
    growth and development and
    the functioning of the other
    endocrine glands. It regulates
    growth, metabolism, and
    reproduction through the
    hormones that it produces.
    The Neck
    The Endocrine System-Thyroid gland

    Your thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped


    gland located at the front of your neck
    under your skin. It's a part of your endocrine
    system and controls many of your body's
    important functions by producing and
    releasing (secreting) certain hormones.
    The Endocrine System- Parathyroid gland

    One of four pea-sized


    glands found on the
    surface of the thyroid.
    The parathyroid hormone
    made by these glands
    increases the calcium
    level in the blood.
    The Endocrine System-Thymus Gland
    A lymphoid organ situated in the neck of
    vertebrates that produces T cells for the
    immune system. The human thymus
    becomes much smaller at the approach
    of puberty.
    The Stomach
    The Endocrine System- Pancreas
    The pancreas is the largest
    organ of the Endocrine
    System. It is an organ
    located in the abdomen. It
    plays an essential role in
    converting the food we eat
    into fuel for the body's cells.
    In Endocrine function it
    regulates blood sugar.
    The Endocrine System- Adrenal Gland
    A small gland that makes steroid hormones,
    adrenaline, and noradrenaline. These
    hormones help control heart rate, blood
    pressure, and other important body
    functions.
    The Reproductive
    Glands
    The Endocrine System- Ovary(female)

    One of a pair of female glands in


    which the eggs form and the
    female hormones. In addition to
    their role in producing ova, the
    ovaries also have the distinction of
    being an endocrine gland because
    they secrete hormones.
    The Endocrine System- Testes(male)

    One of two egg-shaped


    glands inside the scrotum
    that produce sperm and
    male hormones. Also
    called testicle. These
    organs are responsible for
    producing the sperm and
    ova, but they also secrete
    (testosterone) hormones
    and are considered to be
    endocrine glands.
    how do we take care of
    our Endocrine system?
    1. Get plenty of exercise
    2. Eat nutritious diet
    3. Go for Regular medical checkups
    4.Talk to the doctor before taking
    any supplements or herbal
    treatments.
    5.Let the doctor know about any family
    history of endocrine problems, such as
    diabetes or thyroid problems.
