Answer:
(C) Thyroid stimulating hormone is the answer
Reason:
- The pituitary gland produces a hormone and releases it into the bloodstream, thereby stimulating the thyroid. By attaching to receptors on thyroid gland cells, it regulates the thyroid gland's production of the thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine.
- Thyroxine and triiodothyronine are necessary for the body's metabolism, cardiac and digestive processes, muscle control, brain growth, and bone maintenance. Thyroid stimulating hormone attaches to a receptor on thyroid cells, causing them to generate and release thyroxine and triiodothyronine into the bloodstream.
- If the levels of thyroxine and triiodothyronine are too high, these hormones have a deleterious effect on the pituitary gland and inhibit the generation of thyroid stimulating hormone. They also stop the synthesis of a hormone known as thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH).The hypothalamus produces this hormone, and it also stimulates the pituitary gland to produce thyroid-stimulating hormone.
- Thyroid hormones, while not technically necessary for life, have major impacts on many "big time" physiologic processes like development, growth, and metabolism, and thyroid hormone deprivation is incompatible with normal health.
- Many of the impacts of thyroid hormone have also been identified through research into shortage and excess situations.
