Explanation / Answer

1 = c 2 = h 3 = g 4 = e 5 = b 6 = f 7 = a 8 = d *Note: Graves disease / goiter are closely associated to each otherand both associated with the thyroid gland, though thyroxine isgenerally more associated with Grave's. Acromegaly andgigantism are also almost synonymous and result from excessive HGHfrom the anterior pituitary
