Solution

The correct option is A

TSH


Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is secreted by the adenohypophysis. It controls the secretion of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland.

To maintain the levels of thyroxine in blood under normal, the secreted thyroxine shows a negative effect of the adenohypophysis which inhibits the secretion of TSH.
