A) cyclic AMP.
B) protein kinase.
C) adenylate cyclase.
D) chromatin.
E) phosphorylated enzymes.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chromatin is not associated with postreceptor events of hydrophilic hormones. Chromatin refers to the DNA and associated proteins in the nucleus, which is not directly involved in signal transduction pathways of hormonal responses mediated by hydrophilic hormones. The other choices (A, B, C, and E) are all involved in postreceptor events of hydrophilic hormones, such as activation of adenylate cyclase, production of cyclic AMP, activation of protein kinase and phosphorylation of enzymes.
