Q.

Which of the following are NOT under the control of thyroid hormone?

A. Maintenance of water and electrolyte balance

B. Regulation of basal metabolic rate

C. Normal rhythm of sleep-wake cycle

D. Development of immune system

E. Support the process of RBCs formation

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A

    A and D only

  2. B

    B and C only

  3. C

    C and D only

  4. D

    D and E only

Solution

Thyroid hormones regulate BMR (B), water and electrolyte balance (A), and support erythropoiesis (E). They do not govern the sleep-wake cycle (that's mainly the pineal/melatonin axis) or development of the immune system. Hence C and D are NOT under thyroid control.
