Question
Chapter 17.4, Problem 22AYP
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The latent period between the hormones binding to the receptor and observed response.
Introduction:
Hormones are chemical molecules that act as messengers that are carried through the bloodstream to various target organs. The hormones are an integral part of the endocrine system that regulates and influences the majority of critical functions and mechanisms taking place inside the body.

Students have asked these similar questions
Why is it important for hormones to act at low concentrations and be degraded quickly?
How would it be possible to have the normal amount of a hormone circulating in the blood yet have symptoms that indicate a shortage of that hormone? Give an example.
The ability of a specific tissue or organ to respond to the presence of a hormone is dependent on
a) the location of the tissue or organ with respect to the circulatory path
O b) the membrane potential of the cells of the target organ
c) the presence of the appropriate receptors on the cells of the target tissue or organ
