sex hormones, and progressive sexual maturation. Answers a, b, and c result in different
characteristics.
Which of the following inhibits the pituitary from releasing growth hormone?
A. Growth hormone-releasing hormone
B. Insulin-like growth factor
C. Somatostatin
D. Sex steroids - ANS :C. Somatostatin
Somatostatin inhibits the secretion of both growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and
thyroid-stimulating hormone. Growth hormone is secreted in pulses, with 70% of secretion
occurring during deep sleep.
Growth of which body region predominates during infancy?
A. Head
B. Arms

Which factor accounts for the majority of weight gained by a pregnant woman during the third
trimester?
A. Placental growth
B. Increase in amniotic fluid
C. Growth of maternal tissues
Fetal growth - ANS :D. Fetal growth
Maternal tissue growth accounts for most of the weight gained in the first and second
trimesters. Fetal growth accounts for most weight gained during the third trimester. Placental
and increase in amniotic fluid growth are part of the maternal tissue growth that accounts for
weight gained in the first and second trimesters.
Which is the most rapid and critical period of brain growth?
A. Birth to 1 year of age
