    The correct answer will be option-A

    Explanation:

    The pituitary gland is the small endocrine organ which secretes hormones which control major function of the body. Hyperpituitarism is the condition caused when the pituitary gland starts overproducing the hormones than required.

    In the given question, the person has the bulged forehead, large feet and legs and the headaches which are the symptoms shown by the body due to the overproduction of the growth hormone produced by the pituitary gland as it secretes growth hormone causing gigantism.

    Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
