Which of the following is not matched with its primary function and its secondary endocrine function?
A. Heart: Primary function is pump blood; secondary endocrine function ANP to reduce blood volume.
B. Kidney: Primary function is filter blood and produce urine; secondary endocrine function promotes white blood cell
production.
C. Thymus: Primary function mature T-cells; secondary endocrine function thymosins to aid the immune system.
D. GI tract: Primary function digestion, absorption, excretion of nutrients and wastes. Secondary endocrine function gastrin
to stimulate secretion of hydrochloric acid.
