Answer: HEARING.

Hormones in physiology can be defined as any substance produced in the body as a result of a reaction to effect another physiological activity in the body.

Hormones influences out Interest in certain behaviours some of which are, sexual urge, hunger, aggression, sleep etc.

Hearing is definitely not a behaviour and is not influenced by any hormones in the body. So, I will not address hearing when discussing with my friend.

Answer:

(D). hearing

Step-by-step explanation:

Hormones are chemical substances released into the bloodstream, and they regulate several human behaviors by sending messages to the nervous system.

Various hormones affect human behaviors like; sex, hunger, aggression.

For example testosterone affects sex drive in men and steroid hormones sometimes cause aggression.

Hormones are NOT responsible for hearing.
