Question
Chapter 45, Problem 45.3CR
Summary Introduction
To explain: The similarity of the endocrine glands that produce ADH and epinephrine.
Introduction:
The adrenal gland is located above the kidneys. Epinephrine is also known as adrenalin that is produced by neurosecretory cells of both adrenal glands. The pituitary gland is located at the brain. The posterior pituitary secretes an antidiuretic hormone (ADH).
