Mark the correct statement regarding somatostatin.
1 It is secreted from anterior pituitary.
2 It inhibits the release of growth hormone.
3 It is secreted from posterior pituitary.
4 It stimulates STH secretion.
Explanation:
Somatostatin also called growth horomone inhibiting hormone. It inhibits release of growth hormone from pituitary.

Where is oxytocin and ADH synthesized?
1 Hypothalamus- regulates thirst
2 Post pituitary
3 Hypothalamus - regulates thermoregulation
4 1 and 3
Explanation:
Neurohypophysis (pars nervosa) also known as posterior pituitary, stores and releases two hormones called oxytocin and vasopressin, which are actually synthesised by the hypothalamus and are transported axonally to neurohypophysis, hypothalamus regulates thermoregulation, and also thirst and hunger.
