What causes endocrine levels to become lowered?


Question:


Answers:
The hypothalamus in the brain controls the pituitary gland, which releases hormones that often affect the release of other hormones by other endocrine glands.

Most of the time, however, it's a direct response to the conditions in the body and environment. For instance, when your brain preceives that you are in danger, you get the fight-or-flight response. Your adrenal glands release epinephrine, aka adrenaline, which speeds up your heart rate and gets you ready for action.
