The thyroid hormone known as T4 (aka: tetraiodothyronine or thyroxine) is produced in the greatest quantity. It is the pre-cursor to T3 and as such needs to be produced in greater quantities so it can be converted to its more potent form (T3) by enzymes called deiodinases.
Thyroid releasing hormone (TRH) is released when thyroid hormones are low. Increased thyroid hormone production would serve to inhibit/decrease TRH release.
Thyroid stimulating hormone, released from the anterior pituitary gland.
Unlike some medical terminology, this one is kind of straightforward. Thyroid-stimulating hormone is what stimulates the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone.
Many things are necessary for the production of thyroid hormone. *Fuel* for the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone however, is iodine.
A hormone is a chemical, not a cell. They thyroid gland that secretes the thyroid hormone (which is called thyroxin) is composed of cells.

thyroid hormone
The hormone called as thyroid stimulating hormone stimulates the production of the thyroid hormone. It comes from anterior lobe of the pituitary. There is negative feed back system to regulate the hormone production in your body.
thyrotropic hormone or thyroid stimulating hormone which is involved in regulating the growth and activity of the thyroid gland
The hormone that targets the thyroid gland and triggers the release of thyroid hormone is thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). It is produced by the pituitary gland in response to low levels of thyroid hormones in the blood. TSH binds to receptors on the thyroid gland, stimulating it to produce and release thyroid hormones.
No, thyroid hormones are associated with regulating metabolism.
Thyroxine is the hormone.It is secreted by thyroid.
