Match the hormone to its target
Growth hormone = All body cells Prolactin = Female- mammary gland Thyroid stimulating hormone = Thyroid gland Follicle-stimulating hormone = Female- ovary (follicles)
Match the hormone to its target
Follicle-stimulating hormone = Male- testis (seminiferous tubules) Luteinizing hormone = Male- testis (interstitial cells) Oxytocin = Male- no known target Prolactin = Male- no known effect
Match the hormone to its action
Growth hormone = Metabolic regulation Prolactin = Female- lactation Thyroid stimulating hormone = Thyroid hormone production Adrenocorticotropic hormone = Adrenocortical hormone production
Match the hormone to its action
Follicle-stimulating hormone = oogenesis Luteinizing hormone = ovulation and corpus luteum production Melanocyte stimulating hormone = unknown Oxytocin = contraction at parturition
Match the hormone to its action
Follicle-stimulating hormone = Spermatogenesis Luteinizing hormone = Testosterone production Oxytocin = Male- no known effects Sex hormones = Minimal effects
Match the hormone to its action
