Solution
A hormone secreted by the posterior lobe of pituitary is concerned with contraction of uterine muscles.
Explanation:
The hormone secreted by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland is oxytocin, which is primarily responsible for stimulating the contraction of uterine muscles during childbirth. It plays a key role in inducing labor by triggering and intensifying uterine contractions. The other options do not relate to hormones secreted by the posterior pituitary lobe.
