Endocrine organs of the body

Lab quiz 9 will be on the special senses and the endocrine organs. Below is the large model with the endocrine organs. I like this model because it has a nice clear thymus on it. Identify the endocrine organs 1-6. Yes, technically the kidneys (erythropoietin) and heart (atrial natriuretic peptide) are endocrine organs. The spleen is a bonus organ. I thought it was looking nice and purple. When done try the organs of the head model and the simple body model.
