Answer 2

Disorder caused due to Hormone deficiency

• Insulin is secreted by Pancreas and its deficiency causes diabetes.
• Thyroxin is secreted by the thyroid gland and its deficiency causes hypothyroidism.
• The Growth hormone is secreted by pituitary gland and its deficiency causes GHD.

Regulation of Hormone Secretion

• In the body the regulation of hormone secretion is a negative feedback mechanism.
• For example, when the sugar level is increased in the body, it immediately triggers the pancreas to secrete a hormone called insulin.
• Insulin, in turn, reduces the high sugar content in the blood.
