Answer: Option E. All the statements are correct.

Explanation:

Thyroid gland is an endocrine gland that is found in front of the neck, it consists of two lobes connected by isthimus. It is in front of the neck lying against and around the front of larynx and trachea. Thyroid gland secretes three hormones which are thyroxine, triiodothyronine and calcitonin. Thyroxine and trio doth tribune are thyroid hormone. The parathyroid glands are tiny structures found in the thyroid gland. A thick connective tissue separates the parathyroid glands from thyroid tissues. The thyroid gland is controlled by thyroid stimulating hormone called thyrotropin which is released from the anterior pituitary gland which triggers the release of thyroid hormones.

When antibiotics attacks a bacteria first the growth of bacteria is stopped and the bacteria will become unable to divide and spread throughout the body via the bloodstream and aortic arteries. An antibiotics' main job is to stop the growth of bacteria and other foreign entities inside our body, such as a virus, fungal spore, parasites, and other dangerous and potentially deadly protozoa, so as to prevent the body from harm that may be fatal.

On cellular level, antibiotics chemically damage the bacteria or targeted organism's DNA and alter it in such a way that they will become unable to divide any further and thus become unable to reproduce and eventually die off as the white blood cells engulf the decaying organism's body, so it doesn't become dangerous.
