Hulu will stream Fear the Walking Dead, other AMC series exclusively. 'Fear the Walking Dead': First promo's here. Fear the Walking Dead is adding another series regular: Orange is the New Black actress Elizabeth Rodriguez has joined the Walking Dead companion series, EW has learned exclusively. The actress plays Dayaâs mother Aleida Diaz on the Netflix series and had an arc on NBCâs Grimm last year as Agent Chavez. In Fear the Walking Dead, sheâs been cast in a mysterious role that sources are keeping quiet about. But given the timing of the casting, itâs safe to assume Rodriguez joins the show after the first episode, since the pilot has already been shot.
The endocrine system gets some help from organs such as the kidney, liver, heart and gonads, which have secondary endocrine functions. The kidney, for example, secretes hormones such as erythropoietin and renin.
The liver is one of the vital organs of the body, responsible for hundreds of chemical actions that the body needs to survive. It is also a gland because it secretes chemicals that are used by other parts of the body. For these reasons the liver is both an organ and a gland.
