Q.115) A. Progesterone:
Progesterone is a hormone produced by the Corpus luteum (IV) in females after ovulation. It helps in maintaining the uterine lining for pregnancy.

B. Relaxin:
Relaxin is a hormone produced by the Ovary (II) during pregnancy. It helps in relaxing the pelvic ligaments and softening the cervix in preparation for childbirth.

C. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH):
MSH is produced by the Pars intermedia (I) of the pituitary gland. It regulates the production of melanin, affecting skin pigmentation.

D. Catecholamines:
Catecholamines (including adrenaline and noradrenaline) are produced by the Adrenal medulla (III) and are involved in the body’s response to stress, increasing heart rate and blood pressure.
Hence, the correct matching is option (2): A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III.
