    a. oxytocin

    d. ADH

    a. PTH

    c. Calcitonin

    Explanation:

    a. oxytocin

    ACTH, LH, FSH are all secreted from the anterior pituitary gland except for oxytocin that is secreted from the posterior pituitary gland.

    d. ADH

    Aldosterone, cortisol and epinephrine are all produced in the adrenal gland except for ADH that is produced in the hypothalamus.

    a. PTH

    Testosterone, LH and FSH regulate the reproductive system; FSH doesn't regulate the reproductive system, but primarily regulates serum calcium.

    c. Calcitonin

    Insulin, cortisol and glucagon regulate blood glucose levels; Calcitonin doesn't regulate blood glucose level, but is primarily involved in regulating blood calcium and phosphate levels.
