What is the correct reason for calling the pituitary gland the master gland?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It affects the working of many other endocrine glands

The governing concept is hormonal coordination by the endocrine system. The pituitary releases tropic hormones that regulate or stimulate several other endocrine glands, including the thyroid, adrenal glands and reproductive glands. Because it influences the activity of many glands, it is traditionally called the master gland. It does not digest food, fill the lungs, or colour blood, so options B, C and D are unrelated.
