Organized into 15 chapters, this quantity begins with an outline of the endocrine strategy in reduce vertebrates, which has supplied simple information regarding the certainty of mammalian and human structures. this article then discusses the pituitary gland, that is thought of to be functionally and structurally the main complicated organ of the endocrine procedure. different chapters give some thought to the functionality of the pineal organ as a sensory organ able to perceiving mild stimuli in poikilothermic vertebrates. This publication discusses in addition the caudal neurosecretory method in lampreys, hagfish, holocephalans, and dipnoans. the ultimate bankruptcy offers the comparative morphology of the classical vertebrate endocrine organs.
Endocrinologists, biologists, graduate scholars, and researchers will locate this ebook useful.
