A. Maintenance of water and electrolyte balance
B. Regulation of basal metabolic rate
C. Normal rhythm of sleep-wake cycle
D. Development of immune system

Step-by-step solution
Thyroid hormones regulate basal metabolic rate, maintain water and electrolyte balance, and support RBC formation. They are not involved in regulating the normal sleep-wake cycle or the development of the immune system. Thus, the statements NOT under the control of thyroid hormone are C and D. Therefore, the correct option is B.
