  1. suprarenal gland

    The suprarenal gland, also known as the adrenal gland, is a small hormone-producing gland located above the kidneys in the human body. There are two adrenal glands, one above each kidney. They are responsible for releasing hormones like cortisol and adrenaline directly into the bloodstream in response to stress, as well as helping to regulate metabolic processes and immune response. The gland is composed of two distinctive parts: the adrenal cortex and the adrenal medulla. The cortex produces steroid hormones while the medulla produces adrenaline and noradrenaline.
