 | I'm a student interested in which type of hormones are more likely to
be discovered these days, a peptide or non-peptide hormone.
This query stems from a controversial CellBio exam question:
"A new hormone has been discovered. In determining which tissue
secretes it, useful assays would include which of the following blots:
Northern, Southern, Western, Eastern." [Answer Key = "Northern and
Western".]

I don't understand how the question you posed at the top relates to
the exam question. The answer given seems reasonable, regardless of
the hormone type, since the question is about gene function, yes?
What other answer does someone want to suggest, and why?

imperialism the legal, institutional and political situation is far
worse. For Security Council Resolution 1472 (2003) on Iraq constituted
the outright repudiation of 75 years of formal international legal
condemnation of wars of aggression by the world community of states.
Between World War I and World War II, at the initiative of France and
the United States, the then world community of states concluded the
Kellogg-Briand Peace Pact of 1928.54 Article 1 thereof repudiated war as
an instrument of national policy: "The High Contracting Parties solemnly
declare in the names of their respective peoples that they condemn
recourse to war for the solution of international controversies, and
renounce it as an instrument of national policy in their relations with
one another." This prohibition countermanded the so-called Von
Clausewitz Doctrine to the effect that war was a continuation of
diplomacy by other means. At the time it was generally believed that the
Von Clausewitz Doctrine had been responsible for the precipitation of
the First World War by Imperial Germany and its imperialist allies.
Today the Von Clausewitz Doctrine is now the operational rationale
behind the Bush Jr. administration's foreign policy. Can World War III
be far behind? Article II of the Kellogg-Briand Peace Pact mandated the
exclusively peaceful resolution of all international disputes: "The High
Contracting Parties agree that the settlement or solution of all
disputes or conflicts of whatever nature or of whatever origin they may
be, which may arise among them, shall never be sought except by pacific
means." Iraq, the United States, and the United Kingdom are all
contracting parties to the Kellogg-Briand Peace Pact. Not that it
mattered to the Bush Jr. administration, which now openly preaches and
promotes the Violent Resolution of International Disputes Just like Nazi
Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial Japan had done during th
