Discussion
Which one of the following is NOT correctly matched?
| List I Hormone | List II Secreted by |
|---|---|
| I. Testosterone | Interstitial cells |
| II. Prolactin | Adrenal medulla |
| III. Estrogen | Ovary |
| IV. Progesterone | Corpus luteum |
Answer: B
Only pair II is wrongly matched, so the answer is II only.
Prolactin is secreted by the anterior pituitary, not the adrenal medulla. It stimulates milk production after childbirth. The adrenal medulla secretes adrenaline and noradrenaline.
The other pairs are correct. Testosterone is secreted by the interstitial (Leydig) cells of the testis, estrogen mainly by the ovarian follicles, and progesterone by the corpus luteum.
