Steroid hormones are synthesized by making chemical alterations to: a.thyroglobulin b.POMC c.cholesterol d.glucose e.glycogen

 Answer

c.cholesterol

Explanation

Steroid hormones are synthesized by making chemical alterations to cholesterol through a process called steroidogenesis. This process mainly occurs in the steroidogenic glands which include the adrenal glands, gonads, and placenta. The process begins with conversion of cholesterol to androgens, and then the granulosa cells convert androgens to estrogens. Examples of steroid hormones include testosterone, insulin, cortisol, etc.
