Question

question 58
oxytocin (ot) and antidiuretic hormone (adh) are produced by which of the following?
the anterior pituitary
the posterior pituitary
the hypothalamus
the pancreas
question 59
what is the end result action of a water - soluble hormone?
the movement a second messenger into the target cell
the activation or inactivation of an enzyme
the alteration of gene expression
all of the above

Explanation:

For question 58, oxytocin (OT) and antidiuretic hormone (ADH) are synthesized in the hypothalamus and then transported to the posterior pituitary for release. For question 59, water - soluble hormones bind to receptors on the cell surface and often trigger the activation or inactivation of an enzyme through a second - messenger system, but do not directly alter gene expression.

Answer:

Question 58: the hypothalamus
Question 59: the activation or inactivation of an enzyme
