Exercise 5. Read and translate the text:

The endocrine system

The endocrine system refers to the collection of cells, glands, and tissues of an organism that secrete hormones directly into the blood stream to control the organism’s physiological and. The field of the study dealing with the endocrine system and its disorders is called endocrinology.

A gland is an organ which is able to make substances called secretion of the gland. The glands are the chemical laboratories of the body. All glands in the human body can be divided into glands with ducts and ductless. The glands with ducts produce secretion called external secretion. The examples of these glands are the salivary glands, gastric glands, pancreas and sweat glands.

Ductless glands have no duct but they make a secretion which they pour into the blood stream. These secretions are called internal secretions or hormones, and glands which produce them are also called endocrine glands.

The chief ductless glands are: the thyroid gland, the adrenal glands and the pituitary gland.

The thyroid gland lies in the front of the neck. It consists of two lobes lying on either side, joined by a narrow band which crosses the trachea immediately below the larynx. The gland is well supplied with blood vessels and consists essentially of secreting cells. The cells secrete thyroxin, which passes into the circulation. Thyroxin controls the general metabolism or activity of the body tissues.

The adrenal glands are two small triangular glands lying one over each kidney. They consist of two parts, cortex and medulla. The outer part produces a secretion which affects sex. Oversecretion produces masculinity in the female and in the male it produces too early development of the male reproductive organs.

The medulla produces a very important secretion called adrenalin. Its secreted amount increases in excitement and strong emotions such as fear or anger.

The pituitary gland (hypophysis) is a small gland about the size of a pea and yet is of great importance. It lies in the pituitary fossa in the base of the skull. It consists of an anterior and a posterior lobe.

The anterior lobe is the larger and produces a number of important hormones affecting growth and sexual development and the functioning of the ductless glands, particularly the thyroid and the adrenal glands. Undersecretion of this lobe in childhood causes dwarfism. Oversecretion causes overgrowth or gigantism. In the adult this oversecretion causes overgrowth of the head, hands, and feet, particularly affecting the lower jaw. This condition is known as acromegaly.

The posterior lobe produces the secretion known as pituitrin. This stimulates involuntary muscle and therefore contracts the blood vessels and raises blood pressure, stimulates peristalsis, contracts the uterus; it affects the use of water by the body.

The liver is the largest gland in the body. It is a dark reddish brown color. It lies immediately beneath the diaphragm on the right side of the abdomen. On the outer surface is a small pear-shaped bad called the gall bladder. The functions of the liver are to store glucose as glycogen; to convert excess amino-acids from digested protein foods into body fuel and urea; to secrete bile. It manufactures heparin which prevents clotting of the blood, and antibodies to protect the body against disease.

The pancreas is a compound saccular gland lying across the back of the abdomen behind the stomach. It produces both external and internal secretion. The external section is the pancreatic juice that plays an important part in the process of digestion. The internal secretion is insulin that controls the metabolism of carbohydrates.

The spleen is also a gland. Its functions are a source of fresh white corpuscles for the blood stream. It is a seat of the destruction of red blood cells and a reservoir for blood.
