Best answer

Answer: 4. C and D only

Key idea: Thyroid hormones act on metabolism, water-electrolyte balance and RBC formation.

  • A: thyroid hormones support water and electrolyte balance.
  • B: they regulate the basal metabolic rate.
  • E: they support RBC formation.
  • C: the sleep-wake cycle is controlled by melatonin of the pineal gland, so it is NOT under thyroid control.
