Oxytocin is a hormone and a neurotransmitter that is involved in childbirth and breast-feeding. Additionally, the hormone also associated with trust, empathy, relationship building and sexual activity. Oxytocin is produced in the hypothalamus which is a part of the brain. ADH also called vasopresssin is a peptide hormone synthesized in the neurons in the hypothalamus and stored in the pituitary gland. It helps in regulation and balancing of water and osmotic pressure in the blood system in the kidney nephron. Therefore, the statement both oxytocin and ADH are produced in the posterior pituitary gland is false.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

A. whether the glycoproteins or capsid proteins on its surface recognize those of the host cells.

Explanation:

Virus has different surface proteins that are recognized by the receptors present on its host cell. The range of a virus is determined by the recognition of these proteins by the host cell.

The interaction between the receptor on the host cell and surface proteins on the viral capsid is important for viral genome entry in the host cell and to determine the range of the host cells.

If the surface protein of the virus is not able to bind to the receptor on any cell then the virus can not infect the cell. For example, the HIV virus infects only those cell which have CD4 receptors. So the right answer is A.
