Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option A: Pituitary gland
Concept:

Tropic hormones are signaling molecules that target other endocrine glands rather than direct physiological tissues.

Solution:

  • FSH is a glycoprotein gonadotropin. It is synthesized by the gonadotropic cells situated in the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.


  • Once secreted, it travels to the gonads (ovaries or testes) to initiate gametogenesis.


Why other options are incorrect:

The ovaries and testes are the targets of FSH, not the source. The adrenal gland handles stress and mineral balance.

Quality & Fidelity Assurance: Every question on BeambePrep is rigorously curated against the official PMDC syllabus with zero filler, zero out-of-syllabus content, and zero typos. When an authentic past paper originally contained a historical mistake or ambiguity from the examining board (such as UHS or NUMS), BeambePrep faithfully reflects the original paper while detailing the nuance and scientific consensus in the autopsy above.
