- What is the principal difference of endocrine system from other signaling systems? Select one: A. Endocrine signals diffuse to neighboring target cells. B. Endocrine signals produce self-activation of the secreting cells. C. Endocrine system uses cell-cell contact to transduce signals. D. Endocrine signals are delivered by blood. E. Endocrine signals always generate faster responses in target cells.arrow_forwardA hormone differs from a neurotransmitter in thata. hormones act extracellularly, whereas neurotransmitters act withinthe cell that synthesized them.b. hormones are released only by neurons, whereas neurotransmittersare released by many different types of cells.c. hormones cause only fast responses (seconds or less) to stimuli,whereas neurotransmitters cause slow responses (minutes to hours)to stimuli.d. hormones affect only epithelial cells, whereas neurotransmittersaffect only muscle cells.e. hormones are released into the bloodstream and can activate manycells in many parts of the body, whereas neurotransmitters arereleased by neurons and affect adjacent cells.arrow_forwardWhen a hormone binds to a nuclear receptora. DNA produces mRNA.b. G proteins are activated.c. the hormone-receptor complex causes ion channels to open or close.d. the cell’s response is faster than when a hormone binds to a membranebound receptor.e. the hormone is usually a large, water-soluble moleculearrow_forward
- what happens when an agonist, instead of the endogenous (natural) hormone binds to the hormone recepters of a target. A. an antagonist is necessary to remove the agonist B. the agonist blockd any response in the target cell C. the cell responds by producing its own hormone D. transcription factors are blocked from binding to the promotor region E. the agonist has the same effect as the endogenous hormone.arrow_forwardWhen a catecholamine or peptide hormone binds to receptors on the surface of a cell, A. The hormone is transported to the nucleus where it alters the activity of dna. B. The cell membrane becomes less permeable. C. The cell becomes inactive. D. A second messenger appears in the cytoplasm.arrow_forwardWhat features are remarkable about steroid receptors? (Select all that apply) A. Steroid receptors are localized in the cytoplasm B. steroid receptors are localized in the plasma membrane C. steroid receptors can translocate to the nucleus D. steroid receptors represent the beginning of a signaling Cascade E. steroid receptors can also function as transcription factorsarrow_forward
- Thyroid hormone receptor (TR) regulates growth, development, and differentiation of mammals. TR contains both a domain that binds to T3, the thyroid hormone, and a separate domain that binds to DNA. Which of the following BEST explains how TR signals? A. T3 binds to TR at the cell membrane, which then releases second messengers to regulate gene expression. B. T3 binds to DNA at the cell membrane, which then releases second messengers to regulate gene expression. C. T3 diffuses through the cell membrane to bind to TR, which then binds to DNA to regulate gene expression. D. T3 diffuses through the cell membrane to bind to DNA, which then binds to TR to regulate gene expression.arrow_forwardSecond messengers amplify a hormone’s signal bya. increasing its production.b. stabilizing the hormone’s structure.c. triggering an enzyme cascade.d. activating interfering mRNA.arrow_forwardWhich one of the following best describes the characteristics of an autocrine hormone?
