Answer to Question 1

A, C, E
Feedback:
Alternative products are not controlled or tested by the FDA and advertising is not as restrictive or accurate as with classic drugs. Incidental ingredients are often unknown and strength of tablets may vary within the bottle depending on the conditions under which they were grown. While some alternative therapies have been found to be effective, there are others who have not been studied.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The posterior pituitary stores two hormones produced in the hypothalamus: ADH, also known as vasopressin and oxytocin. The posterior pituitary does not store FSH, GH, or TSH.
