Question

hormones secreted directly by the pituitary gland control

emotional reactions.

sexual urges.

energy levels.

growth.

Explanation:

The pituitary gland secretes growth hormone (among others) that directly controls growth. Emotional reactions are more related to brain regions like the limbic system and neurotransmitters. Sexual urges are influenced by multiple hormonal and psychological factors, not directly controlled by pituitary - secreted hormones alone in the way growth is. Energy levels are more related to hormones like thyroid hormones (regulated by pituitary but not the direct control of energy levels as growth is by pituitary - secreted growth hormone).

Answer:

D. growth.
