Summary Introduction

To determine: The major theme among the relationship of structure to function, information flow, pathways that transform energy and matter, interactions within biological system or evolution, which is evident and related to the statement “In response to stimuli from both within and outside the body, the hypothalamus sends signals that control a wide variety of hormones”.
