    The pituitary gland is responsible for the secretion of the growth hormone in the humans. The growth hormone controls and maintains the metabolism, growth and body composition of a person. The height of Donte is just 5 feet and 2 inches even when he is 21 years old. In order to study the reason behind his less height, the doctors will be interested in studying the pituitary gland and the growth hormone released by it.

    Hence, the answer is 'pituitary gland'.
