Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Adrenaline : Pituitary gland’
Detailed explanation-2: -Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is released from the hypothalamus, which stimulates the anterior pituitary to release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH then acts on its target organ, the adrenal cortex.
Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: Adrenaline: pituitary gland is a mismatched pair.
