The diagram shows Hypothalamus – Pituitary – Thyroid axis. Based on the diagram, what will be true?
 |
I. Under normal physiological conditions, a decrease in the levels of thyroid hormones in the blood will lead to an increase in the secretion of TRH by Hypothalamus. II. Under normal physiological conditions, a decrease in the levels of thyroid hormones in the blood will lead to a decrease in the secretion of TSH by Anterior pituitary. |
