Match the pair.
| Column- I (Name of Hormone) | Column- II (Source of secretion) |
|---|---|
| A) ADH | I) Juxta glomerular apparatus |
| B) Erythropoietin | II) Atrial wall of Heart |
| C) ANP | III) Hypothalamus |
| D) Renin | IV) Kidney |
Choose the correct option.
Options:
Answer:
B
Solution:
ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone) is synthesized by the hypothalamus and transported to the posterior pituitary for release.
Erythropoietin is a peptide hormone secreted by the kidney which stimulates erythropoiesis (formation of red blood cells).
ANP (Atrial Natriuretic Peptide) is secreted by the atrial wall of the heart when blood pressure or blood volume increases.
Renin is secreted by the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) of the kidney in response to a fall in glomerular blood flow, glomerular blood pressure, or GFR.
Therefore, the correct matching is A - III, B - IV, C - II, D - I.
Answer: A - III, B - IV, C - II, D - I
