You perform surgery on a lactating rat to remove its pituitary gland from its location attached to the pituitary stalk beneath the hypothalamus. You then implant the excised pituitary gland elsewhere in the body. All the cells in the pituitary gland survive and remain functional. How would this surgery affect milk production in the rat before and after its pups are weaned. Explain why.
