Which of the following are NOT under the control of thyroid hormone? A. Maintenance of water and electrolyte balance B. Regulation of basal metabolic rate C. Normal rhythm of sleep-wake cycle D. Development of immune system E. Support the process of R.B.Cs formation Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Sleep-wake rhythm is controlled by melatonin and immune system development by the thymus, not thyroid hormone.
Thyroid hormones play an important role in the regulation of the basal metabolic rate. These hormones also support the process of red blood cell formation. Thyroid hormones control the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Maintenance of water and electrolyte balance is also influenced by thyroid hormones. Thyroid gland also secretes a protein hormone called thyrocalcitonin (TCT) which regulates the blood calcium levels. Melatonin plays a very important role in regulation of system of our body. It maintains sleep wake cycle, body temperature, etc. Thymus helps in development of the immune system.
