The parts that are examinable are the following:

• functions of endocrine system

• definition of hormone
• exo and endocrine systems
• hormones that you need to know, insulin, glucagon, adrenaline, oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, anti diuretic hormone
• pituitary gland, master endocrine gland all other endocrine glands
• pancreas is both endo and exocrine gland
• male reproductive system, structure and labels, hormone production
  
• female reproductive system, structure and labels, hormones produced
  
• menstrual cycle, how it is controlled by the hormones produced by the ovaries
• STDs
• process of fertilisation
• development of zygote over the first 6 days into embryo and implantation
• functions of amnion
• development of placenta, organ for respiration, nourishment and excretion of foetus
