Female Endocrine System
3D visualization reconstructed from scanned human data of the female
endocrine system. The endocrine system is the regulator of the human
body as it responsible for maintaining homeostasis by producing and
directing chemical messengers called hormones. Hormones act on just
about every cell to carry out a variety of functions related to the
following: metabolism, water and mineral balance, sexual development,
growth, and stress reactions. Most hormones travel throughout the body
via the bloodstream to affect their target organs and tissues. Other
hormones act locally and arrive at their site of action via
microcirculation.
