The correct answer is a) Estrogen.Estrogen is a lipid-soluble hormone, which means it can easily pass through cell membranes. This property allows estrogen to bind to receptors inside cells and exert its effects. Lipid-soluble hormones, such as estrogen, are typically steroid hormones. They are synthesized from cholesterol and can easily diffuse through the lipid bilayer of cell membranes.Oxytocin (b) is a peptide hormone, which means it is not lipid-soluble. Peptide hormones are generally water-soluble and cannot easily pass through cell membranes. Instead, they bind to receptors on the surface of cells and initiate signaling pathways.Insulin (c) a peptide hormone and is not lipid-soluble. It binds to receptors on the surface of cells and triggers a cascade of intracellular events to regulate glucose metabolism.Epinephrine (d) is an amine hormone, which is also not lipid-soluble. It binds to receptors on the surface of cells and initiates various physiological responses, such as increasing heart rate and blood pressure.In summary, among the given options, estrogen is the only lipid-soluble hormone.
