Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
The pituitary gland is termed the master gland because it secretes hormones that regulate other endocrine glands. The thyroid gland secretes thyroxine, triiodothyronine, and calcitonin, which regulates blood calcium. The adrenal cortex secretes cortisol (a glucocorticoid), while the adrenal medulla secretes adrenaline and noradrenaline. Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.
