There is a significant difference between the lobes of the pituitary gland. Select ALL that apply, The neurohypophysis is significantly larger than the adenohypophysis The adenohypophysis is glandular and ductless. The neurophypophysis is not. The neurohypophysis is an elongation of the hypothalamus. The adenohypophysis produces prolactin which is stimulated by dopamine. The adenohypophysis produces prolactin which is inhibited by dopamine.
