What Chemical Coordination and Integration covers

Topics in the NEET (UG) 2026–27 syllabus for this chapter.

  • Endocrine glands and hormones
  • Human endocrine system- hypothalamus, pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, pancreas, gonads
  • Mechanism of hormone action (elementary idea); hormones as messengers and regulators
  • Hypo- and hyperactivity and related disorders (dwarfism, acromegaly, cretinism, goiter, diabetes, Addison's disease)

Past NEET questions on Chemical Coordination and Integration

Try each one, then open the answer and explanation.

Question 1 · NEET 2025

Why can’t insulin be given orally to diabetic patients?

  1. A.Human body will elicit strong immune response
  2. B.It will be digested in Gastro-Intestinal (GI) tract
  3. C.Because of structural variation
  4. D.Its bioavailability will be increased
Show answer

Answer: B. It will be digested in Gastro-Intestinal (GI) tract

Insulin is a peptide hormone. If taken orally, digestive enzymes in the stomach and small intestine (proteases) would break it down into amino acids before absorption, making it ineffective.

Question 2 · NEET 2025

Which of the following hormones released from the pituitary is actually synthesized in the hypothalamus?

  1. A.Luteinizing hormone (LH)
  2. B.Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH)
  3. C.Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
  4. D.Adenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH)
Show answer

Answer: B. Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH)

Hypothalamic hormones stored/released by posterior pituitary are ADH and oxytocin. Anterior pituitary hormones (LH, FSH, ACTH) are made in the pituitary itself. ADH is synthesized in hypothalamus.

Question 3 · NEET 2025

Match List-I with List-II. List-I List-II A. Progesterone I. Pars intermedia B. Relaxin II. Ovary C. Melanocyte stimulating hormone III. Adrenal Medulla D. Catecholamines IV. Corpus luteum Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A.A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
  2. B.A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
  3. C.A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
  4. D.A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I
Show answer

Answer: A. A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III

Progesterone is secreted by corpus luteum (IV). Relaxin is from ovary (II). MSH from pars intermedia (I). Catecholamines from adrenal medulla (III). So A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III.

Question 4 · NEET 2025

Consider the following statements regarding function of adrenal medullary hormones: A. It causes pupilary constriction B. It is a hyperglycemic hormone C. It causes piloerection D. It increases/strength of heart contraction Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A.C and D Only
  2. B.B, C and D Only
  3. C.A, C and D Only
  4. D.D Only
Show answer

Answer: B. B, C and D Only

Adrenal medulla secretes adrenaline (epinephrine) and noradrenaline. They cause pupil dilation (not constriction), so A is false. They increase blood glucose (hyperglycemic), cause piloerection, and increase heart rate and contraction strength. So B, C, D are correct.

Question 5 · NEET 2025

Match List - I with List - II. List - I List - II A. Heart I. Erythropoietin B. Kidney II. Aldosterone C. Gastro-intestinal III. Atrial natriuretic tracts factor D. Adrenal Cortex IV. Secretin Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A.A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
  2. B.A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
  3. C.A-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II
  4. D.A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
Show answer

Answer: D. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is secreted by the heart. Erythropoietin is secreted by the kidney. Secretin is secreted by the gastrointestinal tract. Aldosterone is secreted by the adrenal cortex.
