The hormone to be given is oxytocin. Oxytocin is a hormone produced by the paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus then stored in the posterior pituitary gland (along with antidiuretic hormone or vasopressin) that is responsible mainly for uterine contraction and milk ejection or letdown. Oxytocin induces contraction of the myoepithelial cells in the breast for milk letdown. On the other hand, there is upregulation of oxytocin receptors during parturition which makes the uterus more sensitive to oxytocin. Oxytocin is also known to induce labor and reduce post-partum bleeding.

<span>RNA's nucleotides are made of a ribose sugar while DNA's are made from a deoxyribose sugar. The difference is that deoxyribose sugar has one less oxygen than a normal ribose sugar.RNA's nucleotides are composed of Uracil an alternate nitrogenous base to Thymine. So the sequence of nitrogenous bases is composed of Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, and Guanine opposed to Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine.<span>RNA is mainly found in a single stranded form where it loops around itself. DNA on the other hand is a double stranded helix.
