Question
Chapter 20, Problem 60P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The structural difference of oral anabolic steroid hormone methenolone from testosterone needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The characterization of steroids is done by the presence of four ring structures arranged in a specific configuration in the compound. They are found in the cell membrane and influence the fluidity of the membrane. They work by decreasing inflammation and reducing the activity of the immune system.
