Homework Answers
Growth hormones are produced by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
It is responsible for the normal growth of the tissues of the body as well as bone.
It also regulates and maintains the metabolism , body fluids composition , heart function , muscle and bond growth etc.
It stimulates the production of another hormone i.e. IGF-1 ( Insulin Growth factor -1) , and then both of them act together on the tissues of the body, promoting their growth by adding more cells into them.
