Solution

The correct option is A Thyroxine
  • The hormone from the thyroid gland is thyroxine.
  • Thyroxine is the main hormone secreted into the bloodstream by the thyroid gland.
  • It plays vital roles in digestion, heart and muscle function, brain development, and maintenance of bones.
  • Thyroxine (contains 4 iodine molecules) is the inactive form and most of it is converted to an active form, called triiodothyronine by removing one iodine molecule.

so, the correct answer is option A.
