Erythropoietin, hormone which stimulates R.B.C. formation, is produced by:
1. | The cells of bone marrow |
2. | Juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney |
3. | Alpha cells of the pancreas |
4. | The cells of the rostral adenohypophysis |
Hormones stored and released from neurohypophysis are:
1. Thyroid-stimulating hormone and Oxytocin
2. Oxytocin and Vasopressin
3. Follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone
4. Prolactin and Vasopressin
