Theory
| Number | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | Receptors and Introduction to Endocrine glands | Theory describes that receptors detect stimuli from the environment and convert them into nerve impulses. These impulses are transmitted to the brain or spinal cord through sensory neurons for processing. Introduction to endocrine glands and it's functions in detail. |
| 2. | Endocrine glands and hormones with feedback mechanism | An object gives an overview of endocrine glands and hormones and An object explaining the positive and negative feedback mechanisms of hormones. |
Practice Questions
