Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Acromegaly is caused by excessive growth hormone secretion after the epiphyseal plates have closed. The other choices are not correctly matched. Diabetes insipidus is caused by a decrease in ADH secretion, not insulin response (A and C are incorrect). Dwarfism is caused by an insufficient amount of growth hormone, not excessive cortisol production (D is incorrect).
