187
Q

proteins located at the plasma membrane of the target organ/cell
where hormones attach

A

RECEPTORS

188
Q

Diffusion through plasma membrane (lipid soluble)

A

STEROID HORMONES

189
Q

Unable to diffuse through plasma membrane (lipid insoluble)

A

NON-STEROIDAL HORMONES (protein and peptide)

190
Q

enters nucleus, binds with specific protein receptor within the nucleus, binds to specific sites of the DNA, activation of certain genes to transcribe
mRNA, translation of mRNA in the cytoplasm, protein synthesis

A

STEROID HORMONES

191
Q

Binds to plasma membrane receptors of the target cell organ,
activation of enzyme, enzyme catalyzes a reaction producing second messenger molecule (cAMP, G proteins or calcium), promotion of cellular response to hormones

A

NON-STEROIDAL HORMONES

Sympathetic nervous system stimulation of the adrenal
medulla to release NE and E during stress

A

NEURAL

199
