• How do hormones work in the Endocrine system?
• When your body temperature is higher than 98.60 F, your thermostat in hypothalamus turns on your internal air condition, thus causing your blood vessels to dilate or open up in order to release heat. Also, your sweat glands get turned on causing you to sweat.
• Lastly, your body temperature drops
back down to normal or Homeostasis.
• When your body temperature is higher than 98.60 F, your thermostat in your hypothalamus turns on your internal air conditioner, thus causing your blood vessels to dilate or open up in order to release heat. Also, your sweat glands get turned on causing you to sweat.

back down to normal or Homeostasis.

back down to normal or Homeostasis.
• Now, when your body temperature is lower than 98.60 F, your thermostat in the hypothalamus turns on your internal heater, thus causing your blood vessels to constrict or close in order to keep heat in. Also, your skeletal muscles get turned on; causing you to shiver.
“Global warming or not, its still freezing here.”
• Lastly, your body temperature rises back to normal or Homeostasis.

•After we eat, our body’s glucose(sugar) level rises. This stimulation causes the pancreas to release insulin-a hormone, into the blood stream. After this, the liver and other cells will take in the sugar, allowing the sugar level to drop to a certain point and end back at Homeostasis.
•If we do not eat for a long time, our glucose level will drop. The drop (the stimulus) in sugar will cause our pancreas to release Glucagon into the liver which will then breakdown into glucose, to be released into the blood. This allows the sugar level to rise and once again reach homeostasis.

•When women are going through child labor, the babies head pushes on the cervix. This stimulation allows the pituitary gland to release the hormone Oxytocin. After oxytocin is secreted (released), it is then carried in the bloodstream to the uterus. Once at it’s destination, oxytocin stimulates the uterus to contract. •This process will continue until the baby has come out.•Oxytocin hormone is also involved in producing milk in the mammary glands for breastfeeding.

•Hormones are also involved in how much we grow. This hormone is known as the growth hormone or simply GH.•This Hormone can have various effects on people. For example, if the hypothalamus produces too much GH then the end result could lead to Gigantism. •If too little GH is produced, then the end result could lead to Dwarfism.
