Here the answer is E

But this is question technically wrong.Because hormones particularly Insuline ,I do not think is excreted in the urine.It is metabolized by the liver 60% and Kidney (40%) in a normal person .If you inject it as in diabetics ,this is reversed i.e 40% liver and 60% Kidney.

I do not what is your source of such questions my dear friend.
