Option 1 : Pituitary Gland

The correct answer is Pituitary Gland.

  • Growth hormone is released into the bloodstream from the anterior pituitary gland.
  • The pituitary gland also produces other hormones that have different functions from growth hormone.
  • Growth hormone is produced by the pituitary gland.
    • It has many functions including maintaining normal body structure and metabolism.
    • It is a small pea-sized gland that plays a major role in regulating vital body functions.
    • It is also referred to as the 'master gland' of the human body as it controls the activity of most of the other hormone-secreting glands.

  • The thyroid gland produces three hormones: Triiodothyronine, also known as T3, Tetraiodothyronine, also called thyroxine or T4, and Calcitonin.
  • Testosterone is the main hormone produced by Testes.
  • Ovaries produce female hormones Oestrogen and Progesterone.

In each question below is given a statement numbered I, II and III. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the following assumption and decide which of the assumption is implicit in the statement. Statement: The June 2018 quarter results of Infosys reflect that the investors waiting for the company to perform as good, if not better, than its largest peer Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) may have to wait a little longer. Infosys, the country’s second-largest software exporter reported slower sequential growth in revenue and profit than TCS for the June quarter (Q1). It also lagged on the fronts of employee attrition and growth in the banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) vertical.  Assumptions: I. On the positive side, Infosys continued to add large clients – four in the above $100-million billing category compared with the previous quarter. It continued to retain guidance of 6-8% revenue growth for FY19 while retaining the operating margin band of 22-24%. II. In the near term, the stock performance of TCS is likely to overshadow Infosys given the difference in their growth trajectories. III. The growth momentum of Infosys has slowed relative to TCS. The year-on-year growth in trailing 12-month (TTM) revenue of Infosys in each of the four quarters up to the June 2018 quarter has lagged TCS after leading in the previous five quarters.?
