C. Growth and development, metabolism, and reproductive activities are all regulated by hormones, which are chemical messengers made by the body's endocrine glands. Hence option C is correct.

Option A is wrong since hormones are regulatory molecules rather than nutritional ones. Hence option A is incorrect.

Option B is only partially accurate because hormones are produced seldom and act as extracellular messengers. Some hormones, like insulin, are created in greater amounts and serve as intracellular messengers. Hence option B is incorrect.

Option D is wrong because different hormones may have varying ideal concentrations, which are necessary for them to function at their best. Hormone levels that are too high might occasionally harm the body. Hence option D is incorrect.
