MaxineThyroid hormone, produced by the thyroid gland, plays a key role in regulating metabolic rate by controlling the body's energy production and consumption. Another hormone that affects metabolic rate is adrenaline, which is released by the adrenal glands in response to stress or danger, increasing energy expenditure and promoting the breakdown of stored nutrients for fuel.

How is the secretory activity of the adenohypophysis controlled?
The secretory activity of the adenohypophysis is controlled by releasing hormones from the hypothalamus. These releasing hormones stimulate or inhibit the release of specific hormones from the adenohypophysis. The hypothalamus communicates with the adenohypophysis through the hypophyseal portal system, which carries releasing hormones directly from the hypothalamus to the adenohypophysis.
