Question:
One of the following is not a second messenger in hormone action:
One of the following is not a second messenger in hormone action:
Show Hint
Second messengers such as cAMP, calcium, and IP3 are involved in the intracellular signaling pathways of hormones. Sodium is not one of them.
Updated On: May 14, 2025
- CAMP
- Calcium
- IP3
- Sodium
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In hormone action, second messengers such as cAMP, calcium, and IP3 play important roles in transmitting signals within the cell. Sodium, however, is not a second messenger and does not function in the same way as the others.
