The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Question**: The question asks for hormones that stimulate the production of erythrocytes (red blood cells). 2. **Understand Erythropoiesis**: Erythropoiesis is the process of red blood cell production. Several hormones play a role in this process. 3. **Identify Key Hormones**: - The primary hormone responsible for stimulating erythropoiesis is **Erythropoietin (EPO)**. - Erythropoietin is produced mainly in the kidneys and is crucial for the formation of red blood cells. 4. **Additional Hormones**: - **Thyroid Hormones**: These hormones, particularly **Thyroxine (T4)**, also play a role in stimulating the production and maturation of red blood cells. - **Cortisol**: This hormone, secreted by the adrenal cortex, has effects on erythropoiesis as well, primarily through its anti-inflammatory responses and its role in stimulating red blood cell production. 5. **Summarize the Hormones**: The three hormones that stimulate the production of erythrocytes are: - Erythropoietin - Thyroxine (T4) - Cortisol 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is that the hormones stimulating the production of erythrocytes are Erythropoietin, Thyroxine, and Cortisol. ---
