Solution

1. Gland: Thyroid gland
Secretion: Thyroxine
Function/Effect on body: Control basal metabolism. It also affects protein synthesis and regulates the growth of long bones.

2. Gland: Pituitary gland
Secretion: Vasopressin
Function/Effect on body: It is also known as the antidiuretic hormone that regulates blood osmolality, and blood volume.

3. Gland : Pancreas(beta cells)
Secretion: Insulin
Function/Effect on body: Promote glucose utilization by the body cells.

4. Gland: Lacrimal gland
Secretion: Tears
Function/Effect on body: It secret tears which cleanse and protect the eye's surface by lubricating and moistening it.

5. Gland: Adrenal medulla
Secretion: Adrenaline
Function/Effect on body: Adrenaline triggers the body's fight-or-flight response of the body. It increases the heart rate and cardiac output.
