What type of hormone acts on neighboring cells without entering the bloodstream?

Paracrine


The reason only certain cells are affected is that the membranes of these cells have specific?

receptors


Suppose a hormone is released by an endocrine gland The hormone is carried by the bloodstream to its target cells When it reaches the cells the hormone binds to receptors on the cells' surfaces?

The receptor changes shape and activates a chain reaction that leads to the cell changing its activities.


What determines what cell a hormone will effect?

The target receptor proteins of cells will cause them to affected by a specific protein. These cells are also called "target" cells. Hormones flow via the bloodstream throughout the entire body, but they only affect their specific "target" cells.


What cells are found in membranes?

Membranes surround cells. There are no cells found in membranes. Membranes are composed mostly of lipids.


Are hormones target molecules or signal molecules?

Hormones affect target cells because target cells have receptors that bind with certain hormones (they're specific). If a cell does not have a receptor then it is not affected by hormones. Target cells (which do have the receptor for a particular hormone) would be affected by the hormone.

Are the cell walls affected by temperature in the same way that the plasma membrane is?

Ribosomes, enzymes and cell membranes are all affected by temperature. The cell wall protects the cells that is why it is tough and flexible.


How does growth hormone travel throughout your body?

Growth hormone stimulates cells to increase in size and divide more rapidly. It enhances the movement of amino acids across cell membranes and speeds the rate at which cells utilize carbohydrates and fats.
