A

Adrenaline

B

Noradrenaline

C

Parathormone

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Calcium plays and important role in blood clotting. Parathormone, a hormone released by parathyroid glands, increases calcium level in the blood. Therefore, deficiency of this hormone will decrease `Ca^(2+)` level in blood, thus leading to delay in blood clotting and increase in bleeding time.
