d) they are used to communicate between different individuals

question 4 (1 point)
which of the following is false in regards to the steroid hormone cortisol?
a) negatively feedbacks to the hypothalamus
b) is secreted in short - term stress response
c) negatively feedbacks to the anterior pituitary gland
d) binds to transcription inducing protein inside the nucleus of target cells

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 3: Hormones are produced by endocrine glands (A is correct). Many hormones like insulin have multiple targets (B is correct). Hormones are transported via blood (C is correct). Hormones act within an individual (not between different individuals, so D is incorrect). Hormones can trigger processes like protein synthesis (E is correct).
  • Question 4: Cortisol negatively feeds - back to the hypothalamus (A is correct). Cortisol is secreted in long - term stress (not short - term, so B is false). It also negatively feeds - back to the anterior pituitary (C is correct). Cortisol binds to intracellular receptors (including those in the nucleus that can act as transcription - inducing proteins, D is correct).

Answer:

Question 3: D. they are used to communicate between different individuals
Question 4: B. is secreted in short - term stress response
