Answer to Question 1
Correct Answer: 1
Dwarfism results from insufficient growth hormone produced by the pituitary gland. Carpal spasms can indicate a parathyroid gland disorder. An enlarged thyroid nodule could be associated with a thyroid malignancy. Hyperpigmentation of the skin might be associated with an adrenal disorder such as Addison disease or Cushing syndrome.
Answer to Question 2
Correct Answer: 1
Thyroxine (T4) is the hormone secreted by the thyroid gland. Thyroxine (T4) is converted to triiodothyronine (T3), and both are secreted in response to thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Urine-specific gravity would be measured to provide information about the posterior pituitary. The adrenal gland produces cortisol. The parathyroid gland regulates calcium and phosphorous.
