The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each of the four statements provided regarding hormones and their characteristics. Let's evaluate each statement step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement I: Hormones produced by adenohypophysis are protein hormones.** - The adenohypophysis, also known as the anterior pituitary gland, produces several hormones, including growth hormone (GH), prolactin (PRL), and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). These hormones are indeed classified as protein hormones. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 2. **Statement II: Hormones stored by neurohypophysis are peptide hormones.** - The neurohypophysis, or posterior pituitary gland, stores and releases hormones such as oxytocin and vasopressin (also known as antidiuretic hormone, ADH). Both of these hormones are classified as peptide hormones. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 3. **Statement III: Catecholamines are water-soluble hormones.** - Catecholamines, which include epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine (noradrenaline), and dopamine, are derived from the amino acid tyrosine. They are indeed water-soluble hormones. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. 4. **Statement IV: Thyroid hormone is derived from amino acid tyrosine.** - Thyroid hormones, such as thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), are synthesized from the amino acid tyrosine and iodine. They play crucial roles in regulating metabolism, growth, and development. - **Conclusion:** This statement is correct. ### Final Evaluation: Since all four statements are correct, the correct answer to the question is that all statements (I, II, III, and IV) are true. ### Correct Answer: All statements are correct.
