Solution

The correct option is D Thyroxine
The pituitary gland is a tiny organ, the size of a pea, found at the base of the brain. As the “master gland” of the body, it produces many hormones that travel throughout the body, directing certain processes or stimulating other glands to produce other hormones. Thyroxine is the hormone secreted by the thyroid gland.
