what is the main function of binding proteins like shbg and albumin in hormone transport?
to degrade hormones
to activate hormone receptors
to regulate hormone solubility and bioavailability
to synthesize steroid hormones

Explanation:

Binding proteins such as sex - hormone - binding globulin (SHBG) and albumin in the blood bind to hormones. This binding helps in regulating how much of the hormone is in a free, active (bioavailable) state and also affects the solubility of the hormone in the aqueous environment of the blood. They do not degrade hormones, activate receptors, or synthesize steroid hormones.

Answer:

To regulate hormone solubility and bioavailability
