Solution

The correct option is C Insulin and glucagon
Insulin serves to lower the blood glucose level by stimulating the uptake of glucose by cells. Glucagon increases blood glucose level by stimulation of break down of glycogen into glucose in liver cells and adipose tissues. FSH and LH serve in follicle development and ovulation respectively. Oxytocin is birth hormone while vasopressin stimulates water reabsorption from renal tubule. Noradrenaline and adrenaline hormones prepare the body for short-term stress responses. The correct answer is D.
