Question
Chapter 34, Problem 14SQ
Summary Introduction
To examine: Whether the statement “All hormones secreted by arthropods such as crabs and insects are also secreted by vertebrates.” is true or false.
Introduction: The major differences between the vertebrate and invertebrate are that invertebrate lacks well developed backbone or spiral columns and brain. They have structural difference because of the physiological and biochemical distinction between them. Invertebrates produce some unique hormones, especially in arthropods, which play an important role in metamorphosis.

- Why can a single endocrine hormone produce a wider spread of responses in more of the body than a single nerve cell? Group of answer choices Blood can carry all the same hormones throughout the body simultaneously, producing responses all over the body; nerve cells can only target a small number of cells. Nerve cells and blood work together. The endocrine has nothing to do with the nervous system. Endocrine hormones only target a very small number of precise responses. A single hormone can target many different responses, whereas a nerve only targets a single response.arrow_forwardThe advantage of portal circulation is that_____. it can deliver all of the hormone molecules made one gland to a second gland it ensures that endocrine hormones will be transported to all cells throughout the body it allows cells to make more of a hormone so they are more effective in stimulating target cells it prevents target cells from being desensitized by constant high levels of the hormonearrow_forwardDescribe to me why certain hormones (lipids-based hormones) can move directly through the cell membrane in comparison to hormones (protein-based hormones) have to bind to the outside of the cell and then send secondary messengering inside in order to work?
