Solution
The correct option is B A and B are true C and D are false.
Calcitonin hormone stimulates temporary reduction in number and activity of osteoclasts and thereby reducing the blood calcium level to normal. Oxytocin facilitates uterine contractions to push the foetus downward which in turn stretches cervix more during childbirth. Oversecretion of thyroid hormones causes Graves’s disease. ADH stimulates absorption of water by collecting ducts resulting in production of concentrated urine and lower down the urine volume. Option B is correct answer.
