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.
