Insulin.
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a peptide hormone that decreases gastric motility by inhibiting the stomach muscles from contracting. It is released in response to the presence of fatty acids and amino acids in the small intestine to slow down digestion and promote the feeling of fullness.
During physical activity, the hormone epinephrine signals fat cells to release their fatty acids, which can then be used as energy by the body. This process helps provide the necessary fuel for the muscles to function during exercise.
Phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine are amino acids that have the ability to absorb UV light.
Muscle tissue itself does not absorb nutrients directly from food; instead, nutrients are absorbed by the intestines into the bloodstream after digestion. The bloodstream then transports these nutrients, such as amino acids and glucose, to muscles and other tissues in the body. Muscles utilize these nutrients for energy, growth, and repair, but the absorption process occurs primarily in the digestive system.
is a peptide of 39 amino acids. It is cut from a larger precursor proopiomelanocortin (POMC).

Capillaries in Villi absorb all other nutrients except fat.
Hormones vary widely in their structure and make up - therefore it is not appropriate to suggest a monomer of a hormone as there are many many different types.The simplist hormone are derivatives of the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan such as the catecholamines (e.g. adrenaline and thyroxine) but as these do not link together into chains.
The GH growth hormone is a protein, and proteins are not bad for you. They are full of amino acids as well, and have many benefits that can be noticed.
Yes, lacteals in the small intestine absorb amino acids along with other nutrients like fats and vitamins. They transport these nutrients to the lymphatic system for circulation throughout the body.
Yes; at rest, muscles use free fatty acids for metabolism.
