<h2>
Answer:</h2>
I believe the correct answer is D. React to stimuli from outside the body.
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
Hormones are types of proteins that produce responses hand in hand with neurons but they are much slower and longer lasting. They can act on the same cells and in that instance they will be called autocrine hormones. Those that act on neighbouring cells are called paracrine hormones while those that act on far away cells are called endocrine hormones.
<h2>Further Explanation:</h2><h3>a. Initiate behavior and reproduction:</h3>
This is a function of hormone(s). Hormones such as testosterone can initiate both behavior of an organism and also stimulate reproduction. Testosterone causes maturation of sex features and sperms in males to initiate reproduction. Other hormones with such functions include: Estrogen and adrenaline.
<h3>b. Coordinate the production and use of energy:</h3>
Some hormones conduct this function by regulation metabolism in the body. These include: Insulin in intake of glucose for energy and glucagon in maintaining blood glucose levels. Corticosterone also responds in stress to maintain energy.
<h3>c. Maintain nutrition and metabolism:</h3>
Nutrition can be maintained by hormones such as ghrelin that stimulates appetite, insulin in intake of glucose, leptin and glucagon.
<h3>d. React to stimuli from outside the body</h3>
This is not a function of a hormone but rather the function of a neuron. Neurons have specific structures called denrites that recieve signals/stimuli from outside the body then convert them to nerve impulses that are transmitted to the brain which produces another impulse to be taken to a specific site to produce a desired response.

mitochondria are famously known as the powerhouse of the cell since it is the
one that gives the cells energy that is also used by the human being. This energy conversion is called oxidative
phosphorylation. Mitochondria are found in eukaryotic cells, including
humans. These organelles also had its
own genome, or what we called as DNA which is known as mitochondrial DNA, or
mtDNA which is present in the mitochondrial matrix. The role of mtDNA or mitochondrial DNA is to
convert the energy from food into any other forms that it thinks the cell can
use. It is containing 37 genes which are
all necessary for a normal mitochondrial function.</span>
Answer:
It's always associated with motion
It can be transferred from one object or body to another
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion of a body.
- Moving objects possess kinetic energy which is resident in that body.
- As with other forms of energy, it can be transferred from one body to another.
- Kinetic energy can express itself as thermal energy, electrical energy, mechanical energy etc..
- As a body moves, the kinetic energy is increases.
A nucleotide is made up of a base, a sugar and a phosphate group.
