Question
Hormones are always proteins
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
This statement is false. While many hormones are proteins or peptides (e.g., insulin, growth hormone), others are steroids (e.g., estrogen, testosterone) derived from lipids, or amines (e.g., thyroxine, adrenaline) derived from amino acids.
Hint
Are all hormones, like estrogen and testosterone, made of protein?
