A. Salomon has a tumor in the pituitary gland that causes him to release excess amounts of
ADH. Possible symptoms arising from this elevated hormone would be
a. decreased blood volume
b. increased blood pressure
c. production of milk

Large amounts of T3 and T4 accumulate within the thyroid follicles,but little is released.b. The person exhibits hypothyroidism.c. The anterior pituitary secretes smaller amounts of TSH.d. The circulating levels of T3 and T4 increase.
