GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Your hypothalamus, a structure deep in your brain, acts as your body’s smart control coordinating center. Its main function is to keep your body in a stable state called homeostasis. It does its job by directly influencing your autonomic nervous system or by managing hormones.

Detailed explanation-2: -The hypothalamus regulates many aspects of energy homeostasis, adjusting both the drive to eat and the expenditure of energy in response to a wide range of nutritional and other signals.

Detailed explanation-3: -The liver, the pancreas, the kidneys, and the brain (hypothalamus, the autonomic nervous system and the endocrine system) help maintain homeostasis. The liver is responsible for metabolizing toxic substances and with signaling from the pancreas maintains carbohydrate metabolism.

Detailed explanation-4: -The hypothalamus is an area of the brain that produces hormones that control: Body temperature. Heart rate. Hunger.

Detailed explanation-5: -It releases several important hormones and controls the function of many other endocrine system glands. The hypothalamus serves as a communication center for pituitary glands by sending signals or messages to the pituitary as hormones pass through the bloodstream and nerves all the way down the pituitary stalk.
