Which statement best describes the relationship between thyroid stimulated hormone and iodine? A)Low iodine intakes lead tolow thyroid hormone levels.As a result,thyroid stimulating hormone is released,but no thyroid hormone is synthesized and the thyroid gland enlarges. B)Normal iodine intakes lead to high thyroid hormone levels.As a result,thyroid stimulating hormone is released and thyroid hormone is synthesized causing the thyroid gland to enlarge. C)lowiodine intakes lead to low thyroid hormone levels.As a result no thyroid stimulating hormone is released and the thyroid gland shrinks in size. D)Normal iodine intakes lead to low thyroid hormone levels.As a result thyroid stimulating hormone is released and the thyroid gland enlarges.

Question

Low iodine intake leads to decreased production of thyroid hormones. In response, the pituitary gland releases more thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) to stimulate the thyroid gland to produce more hormones. However, without sufficient iodine, the thyroid cannot synthesize the necessary hormones, leading to an enlarged thyroid gland, or goiter.
