Question

State whether the following statements are true or false.
A hormone is produced in small amounts in a tissue, and it causes a physiological action within that same tissue soon after its production.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

A hormone is not produced in tissue but instead in an organ. The effect caused by that by that hormone can be seen in various parts of the body including the site of production. For example, insulin produced by pancreas converts the glucose present in the bloodstream into the glycogen.

So, the correct option is 'False'.
