Vedclass · Answer

(B) The correct match is $B$. $1$. Anterior Pituitary secretes hormones like $GH$,$PRL$,$TSH$,$ACTH$,$LH$,and $FSH$. Oxytocin is secreted by the Posterior Pituitary. $2$. Posterior Pituitary stores and releases Vasopressin $(ADH)$ and Oxytocin. Vasopressin acts mainly at the kidney and stimulates reabsorption of water and electrolytes by the distal tubules and thereby reduces loss of water through urine (diuresis). $3$. Corpus Luteum secretes Progesterone,not Estrogen. $4$. Thyroid gland secretes Thyroxine,which regulates basal metabolic rate. $Ca^{2+}$ levels are regulated by Parathyroid hormone $(PTH)$ and Thyrocalcitonin $(TCT)$.

Endocrine Gland	Hormone	Function
$A$	Estrogen	Maintenance of secondary sexual characters
Alpha cells of Islets of Langerhans	$B$	Increases blood glucose level
Anterior Pituitary	$C$	Hypersecretion causes gigantism

List-$I$	List-$II$
$A$. Exophthalmic goiter	$I$. Excess secretion of cortisol,moon face,hyperglycemia.
$B$. Acromegaly	$II$. Hypo-secretion of thyroid hormone and stunted growth.
$C$. Cushing's syndrome	$III$. Hyper-secretion of thyroid hormone,protruding eye balls.
$D$. Cretinism	$IV$. Excessive secretion of growth hormone.

Match the endocrine glands with their hormones and functions correctly.
