Solution

The correct option is D Thymosin
Thymosin hormone has no role in regulation of blood calcium homeostasis. It plays a major role in the differentiation of T-lymphocytes, which provides cell medicated immunity. While vitamin D, thyrocalcitonin and parathyroid hormone plays a vital role in maintaining calcium homeostasis by regulating blood calcium levels.
