Answer:

The correct answer would be the last option.

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which a parent cell divides to produce two daughter cells, each containing the identical genetic content as that of the parent cell.

It is mainly used in the growth and repair of the body. For example, zygote divides through mitotic divisions in order to produce all the cells of the embryo.

In contrast, meiosis is a type of cell division in which a single parent cell divides to produce four daughter cells. Each daughter cell contains exactly half the chromosomes of the parent cell.

It is mainly used in the production of the gametes such as sperm in males and eggs in females.

What tropic hormone stimulates cortisol from the adrenal gland?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

c) adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).

Explanation:

A tropic hormone is defined as the hormone which is secreted from one gland and acts on another gland. ACTH is released by anterior portion of our pituitary gland during the condition of biological stress. After it is released, it acts on adrenal gland so that adrenal gland could secrete another hormone named as cortisol (steroid hormone). In response to stress, cortisol increases blood sugar level, elevates brain's use of glucose etc. so as to counter stressful situation.

Apart from this cortisol also helps in regulating our metabolism, reduces inflammation and controls salt and water balance.
