Recall that a small amount of releasing factor from the hypothalamus can cause the adrenal cortex to secrete a much greater amount of cortisol. The action of cortisol, in turn, can result in a high final concentration of glycogen in the liver. This is an example of:a. hormone signal denaturation
b. hormone signal amplification
c. hormone signal accumulation
d. hormone signal degradation

The correct answer is- hormone signal amplification

Explanation:

The signals that are received by the cell can be amplified in the cell which results in the production of more than one molecule of the product. There is a signal pathway in every cell and the longer the signal pathway the more amplification chances are there.

For example, one membrane receptor is able to produce 10 secondary messengers and each secondary messenger generates 10 mRNA transcript so here the signal amplified by 1000 folds.

So in this question, it is seen that a small amount of releasing factor causing the release of a much greater amount of cortisol which shows the example of hormone signal amplification.

the answer is a) a shiprock was formed by igneous process
