Students have asked these similar questions
Where in the cell are steroid hormones synthesized? Where are peptide hormones synthesized? Which of these two types of hormone could be stored in vesicles and released by exocytosis?
How could you determine whether a hormone-mediated response hasresulted from the intracellular mediator mechanism or the nuclearreceptor mechanism?
Hormones are signaling molecules that can alter cellular activity and gene expression. Hormones also have diverse chemical structures. How does the chemical nature of different classes of hormones influence how/where it interacts with target cells?
