#hormone action MCQ

3 public questions tagged with this topic.

Endocrinology

Hormone‑receptor complex of steroid hormones primarily regulates:

Answer: C) Gene transcription. For Endocrinology, once you lock onto the key mechanism or definition, Gene transcription is the clear fit. If you restate the concept in your own words, the functional job described in the stem is exactly what Gene transcription does in Endocrinology. So Gene transcription is the clean, accurate selection. If a similar stem appears later, start from the same core fact and you will land on the same kind of answer. In class notes, highlight this same phrase next to the related diagram so the wording and the picture reinforce each other. When you practise, cover the choices first, write Gene transcription from memory, then reveal the letter — that habit builds real recall for Endocrinology.

Endocrinology

Lipid‑soluble hormone receptors are usually located in:

Cytosol or nucleus (B) is the right choice. This sits at the heart of Endocrinology: the wording points straight to what is happening in the tissue or organ system. A useful study habit is to ask what the structure or process is for: location matters here: Cytosol or nucleus is the structure or site that matches the description. That reasoning supports Cytosol or nucleus. One solid sentence about why this works is enough for recall — you do not need a long essay for every MCQ. When you practise, cover the choices first, write Cytosol or nucleus from memory, then reveal the letter — that habit builds real recall for Endocrinology.

Endocrinology

Termination of cAMP signaling occurs by action of:

Pick B: Phosphodiesterase. Thinking about Endocrinology in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: Phosphodiesterase is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Endocrinology. Hence Phosphodiesterase is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Endocrinology; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto Phosphodiesterase.
