The correct option is A Glycoprotein
- Erythropoietin is a hormone released by the kidney.
- It is a glycoprotein.
- This hormone helps in the proliferation and differentiation of erythrocyte precursors.
- Thus, they produce red blood cells (RBCs) from the bone marrow cells and this process is also known as erythropoiesis.
- The cells of the kidney that produces erythropoietin are sensitive to low oxygen levels in the blood that travels to the kidney.
- So, the correct answer is 'Glycoprotein'.
