Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The posterior lobe of the pituitary gland is responsible for secreting antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which helps regulate water balance in the body. Surgical removal of this lobe can result in a decrease in ADH production, leading to excessive urine production (polyuria). Impaired growth, slower stress response, and lower BMR are not typically associated with removal of the posterior pituitary lobe.
