Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The hypothalamus influences the pituitary gland, which is the master gland of the endocrine system. When the hypothalamus triggers the pituitary gland, that gland in turn triggers the release of hormones from a variety of othe endocrine glands that influence growth. The pituitary gland directly produces growth hormone (GH), which accounts for most of the adolescent growth spurt, but it also influences the thyroid gland, which produces growth in both brain and bones. The pituitary also influcences adrenal glands (which affect muscle and bone growth) and testosterone and estrogen (which influence sexual maturation).
