Answer from: aons

Answer – B. (Producing hormones)
Protein are used in the body for a variety of functions which include, but is not limited to the repairing of muscles, making hemoglobin, and creating amino acids. Proteins are however not used to produce hormones because hormones are lipids. Conversely, hormones play a role in the regulation of the production of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins.

Answer from: naomi5321

Production of hormones does not require the protein to perform any function.

Further Explanation:

Proteins are the molecules that are present in the body of every organism. It is a polymer which consists of smaller units which is amino acids. The amino acids are synthesized through the translation process by the help of ribosomes. These amino acids are joined with each other through the peptide linkage. The enzymes which catalysis various reactions in the body of the organism are also made up of protein molecules.

Hormones acts as the chemical messenger of the body that induces the cells to activate or deactivate the occurrence of certain process or pathway, changing the transcription of certain genes etc.

The muscle repair needs the presence of protein.

Hemoglobin is the protein molecule that is present in the blood of living organism and it gives red coloration to the blood. Its main function is to carry the oxygen molecule in the blood and helps in its transportation.
