Which one of the following combination of statements is CORRECT in relation to the homeostatic control of appetite: α -Melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) is an appetite-regulating peptide that is predominantly synthesized in the brain. Ghrelin is a peripherally synthesized peptide which increases food intake. Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) is a peptide that decreases food intake. A major contributing factor to weight regain after weight loss is stress.Group of answer choices2 and 31 and 21 and 43 and 4ChatGPTThe correct combination of statements in relation to the homeostatic control of appetite is:1 and 3α-Melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) is an appetite-regulating peptide that is predominantly synthesized in the brain. α-MSH is produced in the hypothalamus and plays a role in reducing appetite.Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) is a peptide that decreases food intake. AgRP is produced in the hypothalamus and is an appetite-stimulating peptide. It increases food intake when activated.Statement 2 is incorrect because Ghrelin is a hormone produced primarily in the stomach and is known to increase food intake. It is synthesized peripherally, not in the brain.Statement 4 is not directly related to the peptides mentioned in the context of appetite regulation.
