Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ADH (antidiuretic hormone) is not a tropic hormone as it acts directly on the kidneys to regulate water reabsorption, rather than stimulating the production or release of other hormones. ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), ICSH (interstitial cell stimulating hormone), LH (luteinizing hormone), and TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) are all tropic hormones as they stimulate the production and release of other hormones from various endocrine glands.
