The correct Answer is:
To determine which hormone does not exhibit the mechanism of action by interacting with membrane-bound receptors, we need to analyze the options provided: catecholamines, peptides, polypeptides, and iodothyronines. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hormone Mechanisms**: Hormones can act through two primary mechanisms: - **Membrane-bound receptors**: Typically for lipid-insoluble hormones that cannot cross the cell membrane. - **Intracellular receptors**: Typically for lipid-soluble hormones that can cross the cell membrane. 2. **Analyzing Catecholamines**: - Catecholamines (like epinephrine and norepinephrine) are derived from amino acids and are considered lipid-insoluble hormones. - They act via membrane-bound receptors. - **Conclusion**: Catecholamines do not fit the criteria of the question. 3. **Analyzing Peptides**: - Peptide hormones are also lipid-insoluble and act via membrane-bound receptors. - **Conclusion**: Peptides do not fit the criteria of the question. 4. **Analyzing Polypeptides**: - Polypeptide hormones, similar to peptides, are lipid-insoluble and act via membrane-bound receptors. - **Conclusion**: Polypeptides do not fit the criteria of the question. 5. **Analyzing Iodothyronines**: - Iodothyronines (thyroid hormones like thyroxine) are unique. Although they are derived from amino acids and contain iodine, they are lipid-soluble. - They can cross the cell membrane and act via intracellular receptors rather than membrane-bound receptors. - **Conclusion**: Iodothyronines do not act via membrane-bound receptors. ### Final Answer: The hormone that does not exhibit the mechanism of action by its interaction with membrane-bound receptors is **Iodothyronines**. ---
