Answer:

Podemos suponer que este estudiante tiene insuficiencia de la hormona de crecimiento (somatotropina) que la secreta la glándula hipófisis y se encuentra en la base del cerebro. Esta hormona no ingresa a las células en su mecanismo de acción por ser peptídica o no esteroidea.

Explanation:

En este caso presentado se encuentra una situación diferente a lo que sucede en el gigantismo: hay un problema hormonal en donde la hormona de crecimiento es secretada de manera excesiva. Recibe el nombre de acromegalia cuando sucede después del cierre de la epífisis del hueso, luego de la edad de crecimiento.
