14What are the three different lobes of the pituitary glands?
The [blank_start]anterior[blank_end] lobe is mainly involved in development of the body, sexual maturation, and reproduction. Hormones produced by the anterior lobe regulate growth, and stimulate the adrenal and thyroid glands, as well as the ovaries and testes. It also generates prolactin, which enables new mothers to produce milk
The [blank_start]intermediate[blank_end] lobe of the pituitary gland releases a hormone that stimulates the melanocytes, cells which control pigmentation (eg. skin color) through the production of melanin.
The [blank_start]posterior[blank_end] lobe produces antithetic hormones, which reclaims water from the kidneys and conserves in the bloodstream to prevent dehydration. Oxycontin is also produced by the posterior lobe, aiding in uterine contractions during childbirth and stimulating the production and release of milk.- Aanterior

46In this neuron, [blank_start]electrical[blank_end] messages are received by the [blank_start]dendrites[blank_end] and pass through the [blank_start]cell[blank_end] body. The electrical conduction then flows down the [blank_start]axon[blank_end]. [blank_start]Myelin[blank_end] rapidly [blank_start]increases[blank_end] [blank_start]nerve[blank_end] conduction because the impulse [blank_start]jumps[blank_end] over each [blank_start]Schwann[blank_end] cell. The impulse finally leaves the neuron through the axon terminal and either travels to another nerve dendrite or to a [blank_start]muscle[blank_end] (motor nerve) which makes us move.
Nerve function is controlled by the brain. The brain sends electrical impulses along neutrons that make not only our muscles move (somatic system) by also control the everyday existence of our organs and the rest of our bodies (autonomic system). The brain [blank_start]never[blank_end] shuts off. It is always processing stimulus and thoughts.- Aelectrical
