D)Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)stimulates secretion of cortisol.
E)Increased metabolic rate stimulates secretion of thyroxinE.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

These statements correctly describe the stimuli for hormone secretion: Hyperglycemia stimulates insulin, hypocalcemia stimulates PTH, decreased sodium stimulates aldosterone, ACTH stimulates cortisol, hypoglycemia stimulates glucagon, hypercalcemia stimulates calcitonin, and sympathetic impulses stimulate epinephrine. Increased metabolic rate does not directly stimulate thyroxine secretion.
