Consider the following statements regarding pituitary hormones and their target organs: 1. Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) are gonadotropins that act exclusively on female ovaries. 2. Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (MSH) is secreted by the intermediate lobe (pars intermedia) of the pituitary gland. 3. Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) stimulates both the synthesis of thyroid hormones and the physical growth of the thyroid gland. Which of the statements given above are correct?
Options:
- A: 1 and 2 only
