The document is a quiz about the endocrine system. It asks multiple choice questions about hormones, including which hormones: target smooth muscle cells in the uterus during labor (oxytocin); stimulate egg development and estrogen secretion (luteinizing hormone); and stimulate the release of steroid hormones from the adrenal gland (adrenocorticotropic hormone). The quiz also asks about the chemical groups hormones can be divided into and the target cells of certain hormones.
