Description
A clear and concise 8-page study sheet on the endocrine system which covers all topics typically taught in a high school anatomy, AP anatomy & physiology, or Science Olympiad unit on this subject. Topics include: functions of the endocrine system, homeostasis, steroid vs. non-steroid hormones, positive and negative feedback loops, hypothalamus, pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries, testes, as well as common endocrine disorders involving hypersecretion and hyposecretion.
This product is part of my Study Sheets line of resources, which aim to condense a large amount of curriculum content into a compact but detailed document, science CliffsNotes style! Study Sheet resources typically feature multiple pages of bullet point notes organized by subtopic, summary tables, and labeled diagrams to communicate information. Study sheets can be used by students before, during, and after a unit of study to review course material, clarify misconceptions, and study for assessments.
