Hypothalamus secretes the releasing hormones and the inhibitory hormones into:

1.	posterior pituitary	2.	thalamus
3.	hypophyseal portal veins	4.	axons of the infundibulum

1. somatotropes; GH
2. thyrotropes; thyroxine
3. mammatropes; PRL
4. corticotropes; ACTH

A hormone that is expected to stimulate mitosis directly would be:
1. thyrotropin
2. somatotropin
