The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each of the four statements provided and determine which ones are correct. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate Statement (a)**: - Statement: "Catecholamines stimulate the breakdown of glycogen to glucose." - Explanation: This statement is correct. Catecholamines, such as adrenaline (epinephrine), indeed stimulate the process known as glycogenolysis, where glycogen is broken down into glucose for energy. 2. **Evaluate Statement (b)**: - Statement: "Glucocorticoids produce anti-inflammatory reactions." - Explanation: This statement is also correct. Glucocorticoids, such as cortisol, are known for their role in reducing inflammation and are often used in medicine to treat inflammatory conditions. 3. **Evaluate Statement (c)**: - Statement: "LH produces wide-ranging actions such as development of growing ovarian follicles, stimulation of growth and activities of female secondary sex organs." - Explanation: This statement is incorrect. The hormone responsible for the development of ovarian follicles is Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), not Luteinizing Hormone (LH). LH primarily triggers ovulation and the formation of the corpus luteum. 4. **Evaluate Statement (d)**: - Statement: "Cortisol is related to mixing of FSH and LH during embryo stage." - Explanation: This statement is also incorrect. Cortisol does not mix FSH and LH; rather, it plays a role in stress response and metabolism. The interaction of FSH and LH is crucial for reproductive functions but is not related to cortisol in this context. ### Conclusion: - From the evaluations, we find that: - Statement (a) is correct. - Statement (b) is correct. - Statement (c) is incorrect. - Statement (d) is incorrect. Thus, the correct statements are (a) and (b). ### Final Answer: The correct statements are (a) and (b).
