Top Endocrine System Quizzes & Trivia

Doc, what’s the endocrine system? It is the system that is responsible for producing 30 distinct hormones which have very distinctly different jobs to do. This system has a hand in almost all functions of our human body. Did you sleep well last night? Well, you must be thankful to your pineal gland for that very refreshing sleep, since it is the one responsible for secreting melatonin which regulates our sleep. Did you know that the reason one gets diabetes is that the pancreas stops producing insulin? Are you feeling hungry and thirsty right now? That’s your hypothalamus talking to you.
