Solution

The correct option is C

Aldosterone


Organised endocrine glands primarily produce hormones.while some non organised endocrine organs produce hormones in addition to the their primary function.For example heart produces a hormone called as ANP which regulates the blood pressure.Juxtaglomerular cells in kidneys produce erythropoietin which stimulates the production of RBC.And Secretin is a hormone released into the bloodstream by the duodenum (especially in response to acidity).

Aldosterone is produced by a endocrine gland called the adrenal gland.
