Question

Match List-I with List-II.

**List-I**
(A) Excess growth hormone
(B) Luteinizing hormone
(C) Vasopressin
(D) Oxytocin

**List-II**
(I) Reabsorption of water and electrolytes in kidney
(II) Contraction of uterus during child birth
(III) Acromegaly
(IV) Ovulation

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Accepted Answer

C. 1. Recall the effect of excess growth hormone to match (A).

Since excess growth hormone after bone growth has stopped causes abnormal enlargement of bones, especially in the hands, feet and face, this condition is:

$$
	ext{Excess Growth Hormone} ightarrow 	ext{Acromegaly (III)}
$$

2. Recall the function of luteinizing hormone to match (B).

Given that a mid-cycle surge of LH triggers rupture of the Graafian follicle:

$$
	ext{Luteinizing Hormone} ightarrow 	ext{Ovulation (IV)}
$$

3. Recall the function of vasopressin to match (C).

Since vasopressin (ADH) acts on the kidney tubules:

$$
	ext{Vasopressin} ightarrow 	ext{Reabsorption of water and electrolytes in kidney (I)}
$$

4. Recall the function of oxytocin to match (D).

Therefore, oxytocin causes strong contraction of uterine smooth muscle during childbirth:

$$
	ext{Oxytocin} ightarrow 	ext{Contraction of uterus during child birth (II)}
$$

Hence, the matching is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II, so the answer is **option C**.
