The _______ Regulates Most Endocrine Activity and Links the Nervous

Question

The _______ regulates most endocrine activity and links the nervous and endocrine systems.
A) hypothalamus
B) pituitary
C) thalamus
D) parathyroid

Accepted Answer

The hypothalamus is a region of the brain that controls the release of hormones from the pituitary gland, which in turn regulates most of the body's endocrine activity. The thalamus is not involved in endocrine regulation, and while the parathyroid glands regulate calcium levels in the body, they do not play a major role in overall endocrine function.
