The adrenal glands allso help the body utilize carbohydrates and fats,
distribute stored fat, and promote cardiovascular and gastrointestinal
functions.
Metabolism control is performed by the thyroid.
Calcium and phosphorus levels are controlled by the parathyroid gland.

a.thymus
b.pituitary gland
c. pineal gland
d. hypothalamus - Answer✔️✔️-Hypothalamus
the thyrotropic-releasing, growth hormone-releasing, corticotrophin-
releasing and gonadotropin-releasing hormone are released by the
hypothalamus. The hypothalamus is able to control the pituitary hormones
by releasing these hormones

b. nutrient absorption
c. regulation of blood volume
d. stimulation of red blood cell formation - Answer✔️✔️-Nutrient absorption
Nutrient absorption is a principal function of the digestive system, not the
urinary system.
The principal function of the urinary system are elimination of wastes;
regulation of blood volume and pressure, stimulation of red blood cell
formation; control of fluid, electrolyte, and acid-balance; and detoxification.
The principal organs of the urinary system are the kidneys, ureters, urinary
bladder, and urethra.
