Which endocrine gland controls all other endocrine glands?

Answer
A
pineal gland
B
thymus gland
C
pituitary gland
D
thyroid gland

Explanation

The pituitary gland is often called the “master gland” because it releases hormones that regulate the activity of several other endocrine glands. The pineal, thymus, and thyroid glands have important roles, but they do not control all the other endocrine glands. Therefore, the correct choice is the pituitary gland.
