Vedclass · Answer

(B) The correct answer is $(b)$. Antagonistic hormones are those that have opposite effects on a physiological process. $(a)$ Aldosterone increases blood pressure by retaining sodium,while Atrial Natriuretic Factor $(ANF)$ decreases blood pressure by promoting sodium excretion. They are antagonistic. $(c)$ Parathormone increases blood calcium levels,while Calcitonin decreases blood calcium levels. They are antagonistic. $(d)$ Insulin decreases blood glucose levels,while Glucagon increases blood glucose levels. They are antagonistic. $(b)$ Relaxin is involved in relaxing pelvic ligaments and softening the cervix during childbirth,whereas Inhibin inhibits the secretion of $FSH$ from the anterior pituitary. Since they perform distinct,non-opposing functions,they are not antagonistic.

$(b)$ Thyroxin	$(ii)$ Diabetes insipidus
$(c)$ Corticoids	$(iii)$ Acromegaly
