Question

Deficiency of which of the following causes obesity, low plasma Na+, high K+ and increased blood pressure?
A
Growth hormone
B
Adrenaline
C
Cortisol
D
Thyroxine

Answer 1

C. Cortisol
I am pretty sure those are the symptoms of Addison's disease , which occurs due to the destruction of the adrenal cortex . Since the adrenal cortex is the source gland of the glucocorticoid cortisol, cortisol should be the answer.
