TestHub · Accepted Answer

I. Adeno – hypophysis A . Pars distalis (anterior pituitary) 1 . Growth hormone (GH). 2 . Prolactin (PRL). 3 . Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). 4 . Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH). 5 . Luteinizing hormone (LH). 6 . Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). B . Pars intermedia Melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH). II. Neurohypophysis (Pars nervosa or Posterior pituitary) 1 . Oxytocin. 2 . Vasopressin (or ADH). - These hormones are actually synthesised by the hypothalamus and are transported to neurohypophysis via hypothalamic neurons.
