Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The production of thyroxine and T₃ is dependent on the presence of iodine, which is obtained through dietary intake. The thyroid gland is responsible for producing these hormones, not the adrenal gland. Iron is important for the formation of red blood cells and oxygen transport but is not directly involved in hormone production in this context.
