The right answer is 1 and 4

A hormone is a biologically active chemical substance, synthesized by a glandular cell secreted into the internal environment where it circulates, acting remotely and by blood on receptors specific to a target cell. It transmits a message in chemical form and therefore plays a role of messenger in the body.

The emitting organ thus acts at a distance on all of the target organs of the organism or of neighboring organisms of the same species, or even of symbiotic organisms whose receptors are activated in contact with specific hormones (lasting interactions).

α-type receptors of thyroid hormones (TRα, NR1A1) are widely expressed in all cells but particularly cardiac and skeletal cells.

José probably doesn't feel any pain because his body, during and after exercise released endorphins which are endogenous opioids. This endorphins promote a sense of satisfaction and pleasure, and make pain and discomfort feel irrelevant.
