The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which hormone is incorrectly matched with its chemical nature, we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Hormones and Their Chemical Nature**: - We need to look at the hormones listed in the options and their corresponding chemical nature. 2. **Examine Each Option**: - **Option 1**: Thyroxine is an iodinated tyrosine. - **Analysis**: Thyroxine (T4) is indeed derived from the amino acid tyrosine and contains iodine. This is a correct match. - **Option 2**: Aldosterone is a polypeptide hormone. - **Analysis**: Aldosterone is a mineralocorticoid hormone produced by the adrenal cortex and is classified as a steroid hormone, not a polypeptide. This is an incorrect match. - **Option 3**: Estrogen is a steroid hormone. - **Analysis**: Estrogens are indeed steroid hormones produced by the ovaries. This is a correct match. - **Option 4**: Thyrotropin (TSH) is a glycoprotein hormone. - **Analysis**: Thyrotropin, also known as thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the anterior pituitary gland. This is a correct match. 3. **Conclusion**: - The only incorrect match is **Option 2**: Aldosterone is a polypeptide hormone. Aldosterone is actually a steroid hormone. ### Final Answer: The incorrect match with regard to the hormone and its chemical nature is **Option 2: Aldosterone is a polypeptide hormone**. ---
