Which of the following does NOT involve the hypothalamic-pituitary axis of hormone function regulation?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

(D). oxytocin.

Explanation:

The hypothalamic-pituitary axis can be defined a pathway that plays a central role in regulation of various endocrine glands. Hormones released from hypothalamus stimulates pituitary gland, which in turns secrete pituitary hormones to regulate release of hormones from other endocrine glands.  

Regulation of growth hormone (somatotropin), cortisol (adrenal hormone), prolactin, and T3 (thyroid hormone) is done by hypothalamic-pituitary axis.

Oxytocin is a peptide hormone, which is synthesized by hypothalamus and secreted by posterior pituitary gland. However, level of oxytocin is regulated by positive feedback in loop, in which hormone itself regulates its release and does not involves regulation by hypothalamic-pituitary axis.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

which contagious disease creates a primary skin lesion that is a pinpointed macule, papule, or wheal with hemorrhagic puncture s
Gekata [30.6K]

Option (b) is correct i.e. pediculosis, contagious disease creates a primary skin lesion that is a pinpointed macule, papule, or wheal with hemorrhagic puncture site.

Most infections of head lice i.e. pediculosis are symptomless. When symptoms are present, there may be irritation, a tickling sensation as though something is moving in the hair, and itching due to an allergic reaction to louse saliva. One potential source of problems is secondary bacterial infection. The pathogens that cause Bartonella quintana, Rickettsia prowazekii, and Borrelia recurrentis body lice are a vector for (louse-borne relapsing fever). The most common way that head lice are transmitted is through contact with an infected person (i.e., head-to-head contact). During play (sports, playgrounds, summer camp, and sleepovers), at home, school, and in the community, there is frequently contact. Less frequently, it is possible for flies to transmit head lice (more common with body lice). Transmission can also occur if you use infected combs, brushes, towels, or if you lie on a bed, couch, pillow, carpet, or stuffed animal that has recently come into contact with an infected person.
