Practice question
Question
Glucocorticoids are secreted mainly in response to:
Explanation
Pick B: ACTH. Thinking about Endocrinology in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: the functional job described in the stem is exactly what ACTH does in Endocrinology. Hence ACTH is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Endocrinology; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto ACTH.
