152
Q

Hormone

A

in the blood stream and have access to all cell types in the body
Enter the blood stream and travel to various tissues across body but only recognize tissues that have appropriate receptor

153
Q

Receptor

A

docking site for hormone
- Will lead to physiological effect on that tissue
