Which of the following statements correctly describe(s) the relationship between the classes of hormones and their behavior or f

unction? Select all that apply.The general chemical nature of a hormone can be used to predict: how soluble the hormone is in water. whether the hormone will be able to move through the cell membrane. whether the hormone interacts with receptors on the cell membrane. whether the hormone interacts with receptors inside the cell. whether the hormone will increase or decrease a specific cell function.

The correct answers are:

• How soluble the hormone is in water. Depending on is it hydrophilic or hydrophobic. For example steroid hormones (derived from lipids) are hydrophobic, meaning that are insoluble in water so they must have transport protein for the blood transport.

• whether the hormone will be able to move through the cell membrane. Hormones derived from lipids are able to pass through the membrane because are able to diffuse through the lipid bilayer. Hydrophilic hormones (from amino acids) are unable to diffuse through the lipid bilayer

• whether the hormone interacts with receptors on the cell membrane.  

• whether the hormone interacts with receptors inside the cell

Hormones that diffuse freely through the membrane have internal receptors. Others have cell membrane receptors.

Answer:

1. Carbohydrates - It serves several key functions in your body. They provide you with energy for daily tasks and are the primary fuel source for your brain's high energy demands. Fiber is a special type of carb that helps promote good digestive health and may lower your risk of heart disease and diabetes.

2. Protein- You use protein to make enzymes, hormones, and other body chemicals. Your body also uses protein to build and repair tissues. Protein is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood.

3. Lipids - This is essential for all life on Earth. They play many important roles in maintaining the health of an organism. Arguably the most important function lipids perform is as the building blocks of cellular membranes. Other functions include energy storage, insulation, cellular communication and protection

4. Nucleic acids are very important for cell functioning, and therefore for life. There are two types of nucleic acids, DNA and RNA. Together, they keep track of hereditary information in a cell so that the cell can maintain itself, grow, create offspring and perform any specialized functions it's meant to do.

netineya [11]

The answer is

B. Denaturing proteins

C. Altering quaternary structures

D. Destroying cell membranes

Protein have a complex structure from primary to quaternary structure. Change in pH or temperature will cause denaturation of protein which make it unfolded and change the secondary, tertiary, or quaternary structure and cause the enzyme of bacteria become useless. It could also damage the protein in membrane and destroy them, causing lysis. It should not affect the sugar though
