Which hormone increases the blood pressure by constricting arterioles during severe hemorrhage?
Question

Which hormone increases the blood pressure by constricting arterioles during severe hemorrhage?

A.

Follicular stimulating hormone

B.

Oxytocin

C.

Anti-diuretic hormone

D.

Luteinizing

Correct option is C


Ans (c)
Sol. Follicular stimulating hormone (FSH): FSH is involved in the regulation of the reproductive system, particularly in the maturation of eggs in females and sperm production in males. It does not directly affect blood pressure.
Oxytocin: Oxytocin is involved in childbirth and lactation, stimulating uterine contractions and milk ejection. It does not play a significant role in regulating blood pressure during hemorrhage.
Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH): ADH, also known as vasopressin, increases blood pressure by constricting arterioles, which helps raise blood pressure and conserve water in the body, especially during situations like severe hemorrhage.
Luteinizing hormone (LH): LH is involved in the reproductive system, triggering ovulation in females and testosterone production in males. It does not influence blood pressure regulation.
