An endocrine gland 'P' secretes a hormone 'R' which acts on another endocrine gland 'S' to stimulate the secretion of steroidal hormone 'T'. Identify the P, R, S and T.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
P - Pars distalis, R - ACTH, S - Adrenal cortex, T - Adreno corticoids
Option D (P - Pars distalis, R - ACTH, S - Adrenal cortex, T - Adreno corticoids) is correct because the anterior pituitary (pars distalis) secretes ACTH, which stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete adrenocorticoids.

[R]: Experiments have proved that biological clock is entirely internal.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Both A and R are false
Option D (Both A and R are false) is correct because behavioral activities correlated with a one-week cycle are called circaseptan rhythms, not circadian rhythms, and the biological clock is not entirely internal as it is influenced by external cues like light.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
a target cells' response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways
Option B (a target cells' response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways) is correct because different cells have different intracellular signaling components that determine the response to the same hormone.

Arrange the sequence of action of work of FSH?

(a) Binding to membrane receptor

(b) Biochemical response

(c) Generation of second messenger

(d) Physiological response (e.g.,Ovarian growth)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
(a) → (c) → (b) → (d)
Option B ((a) → (c) → (b) → (d)) is correct because FSH, being a peptide hormone, first binds to the membrane receptor, generates a second messenger, then causes a biochemical response, and finally a physiological response.
