Which hormone do not play any role during reproduction?

  • A.Oxytocin
  • B.Glucagon
  • C.Prolactin
  • D.Progesterone

Answer: B

The hormone with no role in reproduction is glucagon.

Glucagon is made by the alpha cells of the pancreatic islets and raises blood glucose by stimulating glycogen breakdown and glucose production in the liver. It is a metabolic hormone.

The others all act in reproduction. Oxytocin contracts the uterus during labour and ejects milk during suckling. Prolactin stimulates milk production after delivery. Progesterone prepares the endometrium for implantation and maintains pregnancy.
