To understand the function of the anterior pituitary, fill in the blanks in the sentences, which
are numbered to coordinate with the numbered structures in the illustration

1. Neurons within the.
hypothalamus
synthesize various hormones th.at act on the
anterior pituitary. Some of these hormones stimulate the anterior pituitary to secrete its hormones; these
hormones. Othets suppress hormone
hormones are called
teleasing
secretion by the anterior pituitary: these hormones are called

hormones.
2. These neurons release their hormones into a system of blood vessels called the
hypo thalama-
