Calcitriol is the active form of vitamin D. It is synthesized by the skin (which converts precursor molecules upon exposure to sunlight), and then further processed by the liver and kidneys. It plays a crucial role in calcium homeostasis and bone deposition. Growth hormone is related to overall growth, testosterone is a male - sex hormone, estrogen is a female - sex hormone, and calcitonin is involved in calcium regulation but is not the active form of vitamin D.
