What is the circulatory pathway from the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary?
portal system
How do the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland interact?
it is by the hypophyseal portal system, which is a system of blood vessels that connects parts of the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary gland. The hypothalamus secretes hormones into this portal system and the hormones act on the anterior pituitary to trigger the synthesis/secretion of pituitary hormones.
Does the Regulating hormones from the hypothalamus first enter into the hypophyseal portal system?
yes
How does TRH travel from hypothalamus to the pituitary gland?
by the Hypothalamic-pituitary portal system
Does regulating hormones from the hypothalamus travel by arteries to the pituitary?
first enter into the hypophyseal portal system
What part of the brain is resposible for communicating between the nervous system and the endocrine system?
That part is called as hypothalamus. It is supposed to be the highest centre for the autonomous nervous system. You have the portal circulation between the hypothalamus and the anterior pituitary gland.
The vascular link between the hypothalamus and the adenohypophysis is what?
the Hypophyseal Portal System. It carries blood directly from the hypothalmus to the adenohypohysis. It allows a small amount of hormone to be delivered directly to the target tissue without dilution.
What is the link between the endocrine and the nervous systems?
The Hypothalamus. "Signals generated by the nervous system are received by the hypothalamus, which responds by producing inhibiting hormones or releasing hormones."

What is hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary are joined by?
The hypophyseal portal veins.
What brain structure provides a major link between the nervous system and the endocrine system?
The hypothalamus is the endocrine gland that links the endocrine and nervous systems. It controls many of the pituitary hormone levels and also controls body water levels. The hypothalamus is located in the brain.the thyriod gland
