A . Epinephrine increases the alertness, pupillary dilation, piloerection (raising of hairs), sweating, etc. The hormone increases the heartbeat, strength of heart contraction and the rate of respiration. B . Testosterone is responsible for muscular growth, aggressiveness, development of facial and axillary hair, low pitch of voice, etc. C . Glucagon functions as 1 . Stimulating glycogenolysis. 2 . Stimulating the process of gluconeogenesis. 3 . Reducing cellular glucose uptake and utilization. D . Atrial natriuretic factor - ANF is a peptide hormone secreted from the atrial wall. Whenever there is an increase in blood pressure → release of ANF → dilation of the blood vessels → decreases in blood pressure.
