The correct answer is Option (1) - A-(ii), B-(i), C-(iv), D-(iii).

Column I Chemical nature	Column II Hormones
A. Peptide, polypeptide, protein hormones	(ii) Insulin, glucagon, pituitary hormones, hypothalamic hormones.
B. Steroids	(i) Cortisol, testosterone, estradiol and progesterone.
C. Iodothyronines	(iv) Thyroid hormones.
D. Amino-acid derivatives	(iii) Epinephrine.

On the basis of their chemical nature, hormones can be divided into groups :

(i) Peptide, polypeptide, protein hormones (e.g., insulin, glucagon, pituitary hormones, hypothalamic hormones, etc.).

(ii) steroids (e.g., cortisol, testosterone, estradiol and progesterone).

(iii) iodothyronines (thyroid hormones).

(iv) amino-acid derivatives (e.g., epinephrine).
