Solution

The correct option is D Relaxin - Inhibin
Relaxin - Inhibin is the pair of hormones which are not antagonistic (having opposite effects) to each other.
Relaxin causes pelvic musculature relaxation and inhibin inhibits FSH.

Parathormone increases blood Ca+2 level and calcitonin decreases blood Ca+2 level.

Insulin decreases blood glucose level and glucagon increases blood glucose level.

Aldosterone increases B.P. and ANF decreases B.P.
