SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 37

SSC CGL - 21 July 2023 - Shift 4 • General Awareness • Q37

Which of the following pairs is INCORRECTLY matched?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Acromegaly - Adrenaline

The pair "Acromegaly - Adrenaline" is incorrectly matched.

Acromegaly is a disorder caused by excessive growth hormone production, often due to a tumor in the pituitary gland. It leads to abnormal growth of bones and tissues, particularly in the hands, feet, and face.

Adrenaline, on the other hand, is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands in response to stress or excitement, playing a role in the body's "fight or flight" response. The correct match for Acromegaly would be Growth Hormone.
