Questions: Based on the chemical structures in the image, which type of hormone is depicted in C? Amine hormone Peptide hormone Steroid hormone Protein hormone SAVE CONTINUE

Solution Steps

The structure in C shows a complex folded structure, including alpha-helices and beta-sheets, indicative of a protein.

Proteins with complex folded structures like this can function as protein hormones. These hormones are typically larger and more complex than other hormone types.

Amine hormones are derived from single amino acids, peptide hormones are short chains of amino acids, and steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol. None of these match the complex folded structure observed in C.
