ICF AND ECF balence
Contration of smooth and carida muscle
Contrlos growth and dev
Feedback Loop Positive
Releasing hormone because of stressor
Negative feedback loop
Regulate critcal body processes including temp ph hormone regulation to mantain homerostatis
Hypothalamus and the hormones it sends
GHRH,GnRH,TRH,GHIG,CRH,PRH,ADH,PIH,OXT
GHRH
It is the growth Hormone releasing Hormone, it stimualte growth
GnRH
Gonadotropin Releasing hormone, it is critcal to sexual develompent and a healthy reporductive system
TRH
Thryotropin releasing hormone, its funcitno is to stimulate thyoid growth

Somatostatin, is a hormone that inhibits the pituitary glands secretion of growth hormone and thyroid stimulating hormone
CRH
Corticotropin relseaing hormone is the main organizer of the bodys response to stress
PRH
Prolactin releasing hormone, milk production in females
