The adrenal medulla releases hormones like adrenaline and noradrenaline in response to stress or sympathetic nervous system stimulation, increasing heart rate, blood sugar levels, and dilating pupils and airways.
La médula suprarrenal libera hormonas como la adrenalina y la noradrenalina en respuesta al estrés o la estimulación del sistema nervioso simpático, lo que aumenta la frecuencia cardíaca, los niveles de azúcar en sangre y dilata las pupilas y las vías respiratorias.
