Match the Following Hormones to their correction function: Luteinizing hormone (LH) influences mood and sexual maturity Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) regulates growth of gametes: oocytes in females and spermatozoa in males; stimulates ovarian follicles to secrete estrogen in females Oxytocin surge causes ovulation and produces progesterone via corpus luteum in females; stimulates interstitial cells in testis to make testosterone. Prolactin promotes uterine motility and milk let down (release). Also important in male affection. Growth hormone (GH) induces milk synthesis after pregnancy Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) promotes tissue growth mainly by triggering release of somatomedin (a potent growth stimulator) from the liver. Testosterone regulates menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Promotes growth of uterine lining (endometrium); stimulates female growth and development Melatonin mediates sense of thirst and promotes H2O retention by the kidneys; likely responsible for affection & monogamy in males Estrogen stimulates male growth, development, sperm production and libido.

A scientist is constructing a phylogenetic tree for a group of animals and observes that two distantly related species both have spiny body coverings.
