Brief Explanations
- Question 10: The prefix "pan -" means "all", and "creas" is related to "fleshy" (from Latin).
- Question 11: The pineal gland secretes melatonin, which is involved in sleep - wake cycles.
- Question 12: When the thyroid produces too much thyroxine, it is called hyperthyroidism. Graves' Disease is an autoimmune cause of hyperthyroidism (a more specific condition), hypothyroidism is when the thyroid produces too little, and goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid (can be due to various reasons, not specifically over - production of thyroxine in all cases).
