A. Heart → III. Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF):
 The heart secretes ANF from the atrial walls to help regulate blood pressure by promoting sodium excretion.
B. Kidney → I. Erythropoietin:
 The kidney produces erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow.
C. Gastro-intestinal tract → IV. Secretin:
 The GI tract releases secretin, which regulates the pH of the small intestine by stimulating bicarbonate secretion from the pancreas.
D. Adrenal Cortex → II. Aldosterone:
 The adrenal cortex secretes aldosterone, a mineralocorticoid hormone involved in regulating sodium and potassium levels in the body.

Hence, the correct answer is option 1A) A–III, B–I, C–IV, D–II
