developmental aspects of the endocrine system
the embryonic development of the endocrine glands varies the pituitary gland is derived from epithelium of the oral cavity and a neural tissue projection of the ( 1 ) the pineal gland is entirely neural tissue most strictly epithelial glands develop as little saclike outpocketings of the mucosa of the digestive tract. these are the thyroid, thymus, and pancreas. formation of the gonads and the adrenal and ( 2 ) glands is much more complex and is not considered here.
barring outright malfunctions of the endocrine glands, most endocrine organs seem to operate smoothly until old age in late middle age, the efficiency of the ( 3 ) begins to decline, causing menopause (\the change of life\). during this period, a womans reproductive organs begin to atrophy, and the ability to bear children ends. problems associated with estrogen deficiency begin to occur, such as arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis, decreased skin elasticity, and changes in the operation of the ( 4 ) nervous system that result in \hot flashes.\ in addition, fatigue, nervousness, and mood changes such as depression are common no such dramatic changes seem to happen in men. in fact, many men remain fertile throughout their life span, indicating that ( 5 ) is still being produced in adequate amounts

1 hypothalamus 2 parathyroid 3 ovaries 4 sympathetic 5 testosterone

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • The pituitary gland is derived from epithelium of the oral cavity and a neural tissue projection of the hypothalamus.
  • The parathyroid is one of the glands whose formation is complex (along with gonads and adrenal).
  • Menopause is caused by decline in ovary function.
  • "Hot flashes" are related to the sympathetic nervous system.
  • Men remaining fertile implies testosterone (male sex hormone for fertility - related functions) is still produced adequately.
