        Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) (Caroleena) - main hormone responsible for producing mature eggs inside the ovaries.
        
        Luteinizing Hormone (LH) (Caroleena) - aids in the control if the menstrual cycle and the release of an egg from an ovary in women. It stimulates sperm production and testerone in the testes in men.
      - Prolactin (Caroleena) - causes breasts to grow and developed to make milk during pregnancy.
        
        Breasts/Mammary Glands - glandular organs which produce milk for feeding offspring during pregnancy. (Caroleena)
      - liver(Tala): The function of the liver is enzyme activation, metabolism of fat, proteins, and carbohydrates, storage of vitamins and minerals, and regulates chemical levels in the blood.
        
        hepcidin ;HEPC(Tala): It is a regulator of iron metabolism. It inhibits iron transport by binding to the iron export channel called ferroportin.
        
        angiotensinogen ;ACEI (Tala): It regulates blood pressure and fluid balance.
      - Growth Hormone (HGH)(Carlos)

        Maintaining calcium levels
        
        Strengthen bones
        
        Promotion of innate immunity
        
        send to liver to be synthesized
        
        Major play in human bone and muscle structure development by signaling the liver to secrete IGF
        
        Adipose Tissue- connective tissue that stores lipids
        
        Leptin (Zanaya Melchor)

        activation of immune cells
        
        regulates the synthesis of thyroid hormones
        
        send to hypothalamus to control metabolism
        
        regulate bone mass
        
        increase heart rate
      - Parathyroid Gland
      - Pancreas
        
        Insulin/INS (Alyssa)
        
        Regulates metabolic processes in the body that provide energy to the cells/glucose homeostasis.
        
        Allows cells to absorb glucose from the blood stream.

      - Parathyroid Glad - releases calcium into the bloodstream (Rebekah)
        
        https://pediaa.com/what-is-the-difference-between-calcitonin-and-parathyroid-hormone/
        
        Parathyroid hormone- helps maintain the right amount of calcium in certain organs that depend on calcium to function (Rebekah)
        
        Calcitonin - regulates amounts of calcium and phosphate in the blood. However it works against the PTH by working to reduce the levels rather than increase. (Rebekah)
      - Pineal Gland- Center of brain, pea-shaped gland (Crystal Santiago)
        
        Function: Receives information about the light-dark cycle from the environment to produce hormones. (Crystal Santiago)
        
        Melatonin Function: Sleep hormone (Crystal S)
        
        Seratonin Function: Stabilizes our mood, feelings, and happiness (Crystal S)
        
        Allows nervous system cells to communicate with each other.
        
        Helps with sleeping digestion, and eating. Timing of the circadian rhythms
      - Thyroid (Daniel): The function of the thyroid is to maintain and control metabolism, growth, and releases hormones into the bloodstream.
        
        Thyroxine(T4):
        
        Function: This hormones is secreted into the blood stream by the Thyroid gland. It plays an extremely important role in digestion, heart and muscles functions, brain development, and maintenance of bones.
        
        Triiodothyronine(T3):
        
        Function: This hormone plays important roles in the body's metabolism rate, heart functions, digestive functions, muscle control and functions, brain development and functions, and maintenance of bones.
      - Anti-diuretic/ADH/Vasopressin (Ashlyn)
        
        Function: Regulates sodium levels and water balance
        
        Kidney (Nahin) The function of kidneys is to filter the blood by removing waste and excess liquids. This waste in then turned into urine.
        
        Erythropoietin; EPO (Nahin) Function: EPO is released to stimulate the bone marrow to produce red blood cells.
        
        Renin (Nahin) Function: Kidney cells release renin to lower blood pressure.
    - - Helps water absorption as it secretes salt and water into pancreas
- - - - Progesterone helps maintain the lining of the uterus
