To find the odd one out from the given options, we will analyze each set of hormones based on their source of production. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Set of Hormones:** - **Hormones:** Glucocorticoids, Mineralocorticoids, Sex Steroids - **Source:** All these hormones are produced by the adrenal glands, specifically from the adrenal cortex. - **Conclusion:** No odd one out in this set. 2. **Identify the Second Set of Hormones:** - **Hormones:** Norepinephrine, Epinephrine, Adrenaline - **Source:** These hormones are produced by the adrenal glands, specifically from the adrenal medulla. - **Conclusion:** No odd one out in this set. 3. **Identify the Third Set of Hormones:** - **Hormones:** Relaxin, Estrogen, Progesterone - **Source:** All these hormones are produced in the ovaries, with relaxin being released from the corpus luteum, and estrogen and progesterone also being produced there. - **Conclusion:** No odd one out in this set. 4. **Identify the Fourth Set of Hormones:** - **Hormones:** Insulin, Glucagon, Thymosin - **Source:** Insulin and glucagon are produced by the pancreas, while thymosin is produced by the thymus gland. - **Conclusion:** Thymosin is the odd one out because it is produced by a different gland (thymus) compared to insulin and glucagon (pancreas). ### Final Answer: The odd one out is **Thymosin**. ---
