2. Prolactin (pictured below) is a peptide hormone produced by your body. It is most commonly associated with milk production in mammals, but serves over 300 functions in the human body. a. FIRST, on the diagram of prolactin, make sure to label any partial or full charges that would be present. b. SECOND, in the space provided below, explain whether you think prolactin would be dissolved in water or not; make sure to clearly explain why or why not. c. Lastly, on the diagram of prolactin below, indicate where on the prolactin molecule water could interact via hydrogen bonds and if water soluble, demonstrate the hydration shell.
