(28 cards)
Adrenal gland features:
The top part is identified by the thin purple layer that secretes aldosterone.
The middle layer is made of larger, closely packed cells that produce cortisol and androgens.
The bottom part has large loosely packed cells.
Thyroid gland features:
Has colloid, follicular and parafollicular cells.
Pituitary gland features:
On the left side tightly packed epithelial cells make up the anterior pituitary gland.
On the right side neural tissue makes up the posterior pituitary gland.
Pineal gland features:
Tightly packed epithelial cells.
Thymus gland features:
Closely packed epithelial cells that secrete thymosin for the maturation of T-Lymphocytes
