The posterior pituitary gland is a section of the pituitary gland. This organ secretes hormones such as antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and oxytocin. ADH functions to help the body to retain water; this is important in maintaining a homeostatic balance between blood solutions and water. Oxytocin functions to induce uterine contractions, stimulate lactation, and allows for ejaculation.

The alpha cells of the pancreas secrete hormones to maintain homeostatic blood sugar. Insulin is produced and excreted to lower blood sugar to normal levels. Glucagon, another hormone produced by alpha cells, is secreted in response to low blood sugar levels; glucagon stimulates glycogen stores in the liver to release sugar into the bloodstream to raise blood sugar to normal levels.

Are there any other areas of the main article that your classmate could contribute to? This is basic information the article doesn't have but needs. A little more description of the posterior pituitary gland could be provided, but besides that I think it's a solid contribution to this article.Mwestrick1 (talk) 15:46, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
