The adrenal cortex consists of three zones: the zona glomerulosa, which produces mineralocorticoids; the zona fasciculata, which produces glucocorticoids; and the zona reticularis, which produces androgens.
1. Zona glomerulosa (mineralocorticoids) 2. Zona fasciculata (Glucocorticoids) 3. Zona reticularis (androgens)
