The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of matching hormones with their respective diseases, we will analyze each hormone and the disease associated with it step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Hormones and Their Functions**: - **Insulin**: A hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates blood sugar levels. - **Thyroxin**: A hormone produced by the thyroid gland that regulates metabolism. - **Corticoids**: Hormones produced by the adrenal glands that help in stress response and metabolism. - **Growth Hormone**: A hormone that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and regeneration. 2. **Match Insulin with a Disease**: - **Insulin** is crucial for glucose metabolism. A lack of insulin leads to **Diabetes mellitus** (option iv). - **Match**: (a) Insulin → (iv) Diabetes mellitus 3. **Match Thyroxin with a Disease**: - **Thyroxin** regulates metabolism. A deficiency can lead to conditions like **Diabetes insipidus**, which is characterized by excessive thirst and urination due to an inability to concentrate urine. - **Match**: (b) Thyroxin → (ii) Diabetes insipidus 4. **Match Corticoids with a Disease**: - **Corticoids** are linked to the adrenal glands. A deficiency in these hormones can lead to **Addison’s disease**, which is characterized by insufficient production of adrenal hormones. - **Match**: (c) Corticoids → (i) Addison's disease 5. **Match Growth Hormone with a Disease**: - **Growth Hormone** is responsible for growth and development. An excess of growth hormone can lead to **Acromegaly**, a condition where bones and tissues grow excessively. - **Match**: (d) Growth Hormone → (iii) Acromegaly ### Final Matches: - (a) Insulin → (iv) Diabetes mellitus - (b) Thyroxin → (ii) Diabetes insipidus - (c) Corticoids → (i) Addison's disease - (d) Growth Hormone → (iii) Acromegaly ### Correct Option: The correct matches are: - (a) → (iv) - (b) → (ii) - (c) → (i) - (d) → (iii)
