Find the correct match between hormone and its source gland

Options

A. Oxytocin - Anterior pituitary
B. Gonadotropins - Hypothalamus
C. PRL - Adenohypophysis
D. ADH - Neurohyphophysis

Answer

To find the correct match between hormones and their source glands, we will analyze each hormone and its corresponding gland step by step.

### Step 1: Identify the hormones and their proposed source glands.
1. **Oxytocin** - Proposed source: Anterior Pituitary Gland
2. **Gonadotropin** - Proposed source: Hypothalamus
3. **Prolactin (PRL)** - Proposed source: Mammary Gland
4. **ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone)** - Proposed source: Neurohypophysis (Posterior Pituitary Gland)

### Step 2: Verify the source of each hormone.
1. **Oxytocin**:
- Correct Source: Hypothalamus (released from posterior pituitary gland).
- Incorrect match with anterior pituitary gland.

2. **Gonadotropin**:
- Correct Source: Anterior Pituitary Gland (it is produced in the hypothalamus but released from the anterior pituitary).
- This match is partially correct since it is associated with the hypothalamus but released from the anterior pituitary.

3. **Prolactin (PRL)**:
- Correct Source: Anterior Pituitary Gland (not the mammary gland).
- This match is incorrect as it is not produced in the mammary gland.

4. **ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone)**:
- Correct Source: Posterior Pituitary Gland (also known as Neurohypophysis).
- This match is incorrect since it is not released from the neurohypophysis but from the posterior pituitary.

### Step 3: Determine the correct match.
Based on the analysis:
- The only correct match is **Gonadotropin** with the **Anterior Pituitary Gland**.
- The other hormones do not match correctly with their proposed glands.

### Conclusion:
The correct answer is the match between **Gonadotropin and Anterior Pituitary Gland**.
