The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify the blanks a, b, and c based on the given statements. Let's analyze each part step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identifying Blank A**: - The statement mentions "Oestrogen - Maintenance of secondary sexual characters". - Oestrogen is a hormone primarily produced in the ovaries and is responsible for the development and maintenance of female secondary sexual characteristics. - Therefore, Blank A is **Ovary**. 2. **Identifying Blank B**: - The statement refers to "alpha-cells of islets of Langerhans - Raises blood sugar level". - The alpha cells of the pancreas secrete a hormone called glucagon, which increases blood sugar levels by promoting the conversion of glycogen to glucose in the liver. - Hence, Blank B is **Glucagon**. 3. **Identifying Blank C**: - The statement states "Anterior pituitary - Over secretion leads to gigantism". - The anterior pituitary gland secretes several hormones, one of which is the growth hormone (GH). An excess of growth hormone can lead to a condition known as gigantism. - Therefore, Blank C is **Growth Hormone**. ### Final Answers: - A = Ovary - B = Glucagon - C = Growth Hormone
