Which of the following statements about endocrine targeting and reception is correct?
a. The idea that one hormone affects one type of tissue is illustrated when epinephrine cannot adivate both the receptors on liver cells and the beta receptors of heart muscle.
B. The idea that the response to a hormone is the same amling different target cells is shown when diferent liver cells are activated by insulin.
C. The idea that one hormone affects one type of tissue is illustrated when epinephrine binds to smooth cells in blood vessels, as well as to beta cells in heart muscle
d. The idea that a minute concentration of hormone can cause widespread effects demonstrates the specificity if cells for certain hormones.
E. The idea that a target cell can responds to more than one hormone is illustrated by a vertabrate liver cell responding to insulin and glucagon.
