What is the hypothalamus?
200
This is the center of adrenal gland regulating stress and secretes epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine.
What is the adrenal medulla?

This gland is important in growth and protein synthesis, increases basal metabolic rate and is located in the neck (inferior to the larynx and anterior to the trachea).
What is the thyroid gland?
300
These antibodies have an unknown function, but may trigger lymphatic stimulation.
What is IgD?
300
The inner section of the kidney.
