Q.
Match List I with List II:
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| A. Exophthalmic goiter | I. Excess secretion of cortisol, moon face & hyperglycemia |
| B. Acromegaly | II. Hypo-secretion of thyroid hormone and stunted growth |
| C. Cushing's syndrome | III. Hyper secretion of thyroid hormone & protruding eye balls |
| D. Cretinism | IV. Excessive secretion of growth hormone |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A
A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
- B
A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
- C
A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
- D
A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
Solution
Exophthalmic goitre (Graves' disease) involves hypersecretion of thyroid hormones with protruding eyeballs (A-III). Acromegaly is caused by excessive growth hormone in adults (B-IV). Cushing's syndrome arises from excess cortisol, producing moon face and hyperglycaemia (C-I). Cretinism is hypothyroidism in children leading to stunted growth (D-II).
