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
The posterior pituitary gland is not a 'true' endocrine gland because:
| 1. | it is provided with a duct |
| 2. | it only stores and releases hormones |
| 3. | it is under the regulation of hypothalamus |
| 4. | it secretes enzymes |
Which one of the following hormones though synthesised elsewhere, is stored and released by the master gland?
1. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone
2. Antidiuretic hormone
3. Luteinizing hormone
4. Prolactin
Match the source gland with its respective hormone as well as the function.
