Which growth hormones are taken?
The growth hormones that are typically taken are synthetic versions of human growth hormone (HGH) such as somatropin. These hormones are used to treat growth hormone deficiencies in children and adults, as well as other conditions such as short stature and muscle wasting. They work by stimulating growth, cell reproduction, and regeneration in the body. It is important to note that the use of growth hormones should always be prescribed and monitored by a healthcare professional.

Have I understood correctly that modern photovoltaic technology actually has an efficiency of 80 percent when all losses are taken into account?
No, you have not understood correctly. Modern photovoltaic technology typically has an efficiency ranging from 15-22%, meaning that only a fraction of the sunlight that hits the solar panels is converted into electricity. When losses such as reflection, temperature, and wiring are taken into account, the overall efficiency of a solar panel system can drop to around 10-15%. An efficiency of 80% would be exceptionally high and is not currently achievable with standard photovoltaic technology.
