Explanation:

• Question 25: The word "diabetes" comes from the Greek word "diabainein" which means "to pass through".
• Question 26: The prefix "Thymo -" can mean "soul" (in a historical or etymological sense related to ancient concepts of the soul being associated with the thymus in some philosophical - medical ideas) or "flowery" (in some botanical or descriptive usages related to the thymus gland's appearance in early anatomical descriptions).
• Question 27: The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), human growth hormone (HGH), and follicle - stimulating hormone (FSH). The posterior lobe (neurohypophysis) secretes hormones like oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone. The isthmus is a part of the thyroid gland, not the pituitary.

• Question 25: through/passing
• Question 26: Soul or flowery
