a closer look
potential uses for growth hormone growth hormone (gh) has been used for pharmaceutical purposes (that is, as a drug) since its discovery in the
1950s. originally obtained from the (1) glands of cadavers, it is now biosynthesized and administered by injection.
gh is administered legally to children who do not produce it naturally to allow these children to grow to near - normal heights. unfortunately, some (2)
succumb to parental pressures to prescribe gh to children who do produce it but are extremely short.
when gh is administered to adults with a growth hormone (3), body fat decreases, and bone density and muscle mass increase. gh also
appears to increase the performance and muscle mass of the heart, decreases blood cholesterol, boosts the (4) system, and perhaps
improves a persons psychological outlook. such effects (particularly those involving increased muscle mass and decreased body fat) have led to abuse
of gh by bodybuilders and athletes. based on these effects, gh is a (5) performance - enhancing drug, and its use remains restricted.

Explanation:

1. Growth hormone (GH) was originally obtained from the pituitary glands of cadavers. The pituitary gland is the source of GH in the body.
2. Physicians are the ones who prescribe medications. In the context, it's physicians succumbing to parental pressure to prescribe GH.
3. When adults have a growth - hormone deficiency, GH can be administered. This is a medical condition where the body doesn't produce enough GH.
4. The immune system can be boosted. GH has effects on multiple body systems, and boosting the immune system is a known effect.
5. Since its use is restricted, GH is a banned performance - enhancing drug. Banned drugs are those with restricted use, especially in sports.
