Answer 2

B. TSH

Step-by-step explanation:

Thyro-stimulating hormone (TSH) is produced by the pituitary gland and its purpose is to stimulate the thyroid to produce T3 and T4 hormones. When TSH values are at low concentrations, T3 and T4 are present at high blood concentrations, the result is that the individual may experience agitation, heart palpitation, insomnia, weight loss, nervousness, tremors, decreased muscle mass, fatigue, weakness and even depression.
