The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of which hormone is not produced by the basophils of the pituitary gland, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Types of Cells in the Pituitary Gland**: - The pituitary gland has two main types of cells: chromophobes and chromophils. - Chromophils are further divided into two categories: acidophils and basophils. 2. **Identify the Hormones Produced by Each Cell Type**: - Acidophils produce hormones such as Prolactin (PRL). - Basophils produce hormones such as Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). 3. **Analyze the Options Given**: - Option (a) PRL: Produced by acidophils. - Option (b) TSH: Produced by basophils. - Option (c) FSH: Produced by basophils. - Option (d) LH: Produced by basophils. 4. **Determine Which Hormone is Not Produced by Basophils**: - Since PRL is produced by acidophils and not by basophils, it is the hormone that is not produced by basophils. 5. **Conclude the Answer**: - Therefore, the correct answer is (a) PRL. ### Final Answer: The hormone that is not produced by basophils of the pituitary is (a) PRL. ---
