Adolescent Development, Sexual Hormones, Leptin, Propositional Logic:…

- - - - Puberty starts with hormonal signals from the hypothalamus to the pituitary gland.
      - Then, the pituitary gland sends hormonal messages to the adrenal glands and gonads, prompting them to produce more hormones.
    - - The adrenal glands produce hormones via the HPA (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal) axis, increasing hormones like cortisol.
    - - The pituitary gland activates that adrenal glands and gonads (ovaries in females and testes in males) through the HPG (hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad) axis.
      - Influencing stress, sexual desire, immunity, reproduction, and other bodily functions.
  - - - After the height, spurt, a muscle spurt occurs.
      - During late adolescence, muscles develop, and awkward body proportions become less noticeable.
    - - The height spurt usually follows the weight spurt, typically occurring a year ot two.
      - This is a period of rapid increase in height.
    - - During this phase, they tend to eat more, leading to increased weight gain.
      - Adolescents usually experience a weight spurt before their height spurt.
  - - - These are the body parts directly involved in conception and pregnancy, such as the ovaries, uterus, penis, and testes.
      - During puberty, these organs grow significantly and become capable of reproduction.
    - - These are bodily features that indicate masculinity or femininity, but are not directly involved in reproduction.
      - Examples
        
        Facial and body hair
        
        body shape
        
        voice changes.
        
        For instance, males widen at the shoulders and grow taller, while females widen at the hips and develop breasts.
- - - - 1. Intutive/Emotional System: Fast, automatic responses based on feelings and instincts.
      - 2. Analytical/Rational System: Slower, deliberate reasoning using formal logic.
