Solution

The correct option is D PTH
Tropic hormones refer to such hormones that are produced by the anterior pituitary, which stimulate other endocrine glands to produce their specific hormones such as thyroid-stimulating hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, luteotropic hormone, etc. PTH (parathyroid hormone) is not a tropic hormone.
