Chapter 45, Problem 19TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Hormones are signaling molecules that help to regulate physiology and behavior. The cells that are influenced by a particular hormone are known as target cells. They have specific binding receptors on the surface of the cell or within the cell. Hormones bind to these receptors to produce a characteristic response.
