Hey There!_____________________________________ $\huge\textbf{Adrenal Gland:}$

Ad means upon and renal means kidney, thus adrenal gland is present at the top of the kidney. There are two regions in the adrenal gland,

Adrenal Cortex: Outer regionAdrenal Medulla: Inner region

x------------------------------------------------------------x

$\Large\textbf{Adrenal Cortex}$

Adrenal Cortex is active all the time but especially in shock or stress condition. It secretes aldosterone, cortisol and androgenic hormones.

ALDOSTERONE: It promotes the retention of sodium ions and release of potassium ions by kidney. It also promotes inflammation as part of the body immune defense reaction.CORTISOL: It brings about an increase in blood glucose level mainly its production from protein and by antagonizing the action insulin.ANDROGEN: They play an important role in sexual development. As they secrete androgen and testosterone so they promote the secondary sex characters such as beards in men and sexual characters in woman._____________________________________ $\Large\textbf{Adrenal Medula}$

The adrenal emdulla produces the hormones such as adrenaline and nor-adrenaline. Both of these hormones are secreted in stress condition. THey produce many specific changes in the body.

They produce the fight and flight mechanism inside our body. It dilates the blood vessels, promotes the release of glucose from the liver glycogen, reinforces the effects of sympethatic system, dilates the pupil of an eye.
