Correct answer: D. All of the choices are correct
- A. Amino acids
- B. Modified amino acids
- C. Steroid
- D. All of the choices are correct
Explanation
Hormones are not made of amino acids because they are typically derived from lipids or amino acids are modified to create them.Hormones are made of modified amino acids because amino acids serve as the building blocks for protein synthesis, allowing for the diverse structures and functions of hormones within the body.Hormones are made of steroids because steroids are lipid-soluble molecules that can easily pass through cell membranes to exert their effects on gene expression and cellular function.
