Question

Identify the code of amino acid and iodine derivative hormone in the given option.

• A. Y, Insuline
• B. T, Thyroxine
• C. Y, Thyroxine
• D. T, Insuline

Hint:

Thyroxine is an iodine-containing hormone, derived from the amino acid tyrosine, while insulin is a peptide hormone made from amino acids.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In this question, we need to identify the correct amino acid code and its associated iodine derivative hormone.

- Insulin is a peptide hormone made from amino acids and does not contain iodine. It is not associated with the code "Y."
- Thyroxine is an iodine derivative hormone and is derived from the amino acid tyrosine. The correct code for thyroxine is "Y."

Thus, the correct answer is option (C), where the code for thyroxine is Y.

Final Answer: (C) Y, Thyroxine
