Produces hormones that regulate many bodily functions such as metabolism, heart rate, and body temperature

Regulates calcium levels in the blood

Produces and releases hormones that control many body functions such as growth, metabolism, reproduction, and stress response

What is the function of the pineal gland?

Produces melatonin and regulates sleep and circadian rhythm

Regulates calcium levels in the blood

Blood pressure, metabolism, bodies response to stress

Produces enzymes to help digest food, makes insulin that controls blood sugar levels
