Primarily, the Liver- glucagon stimulates glycogenolysis, releasing additional glucose into the bloodstream.
Adipose tissue- fatty acids are metabolized for energy when there is a shortage of glucose to burn.

∙ 12y agoinsulin works on every cell in the body (except nervous cells in the brain and spinal cord which take in glucose without it). I guess you could say the target tissue is muscle tissue because that is the classic example. However it is also important in the liver

∙ 14y agoThe target organ for glucagon is the liver. It tells the liver to release stored glucose into the blood stream.

Is adipose tissue vascularized?
Yes. Vascular networks in adipose tissue permit rapid transport of FAs from the adipocytes to target cells in reponse to hormonal metabolic signalling.
What are target tissues?
when the chemicals arrive in the right places, the target tissues, they start to do their work. a group of cells that have receptors embedded in the plasma membrane that are complementary in shape to specific hormone molecules. Only these cells will respond to that specific hormone.
Four types of human tissue?
Epithelial tissue, nearve tissue,connective tissue,muscal tissue!
The type of tissue that covers and protects underlying tissue?
Say:EYESpell:MAPSay:Ness
What type of tissue possesses an abundant extracellular matrix?
Connective tissue has an extracellular matrix
What insulins can't be mixed with other insulins?
lantus
What makes one tissue a target tissue and another not a target tissue for a hormone?
A tissue becomes a target tissue when it is affected or stimulated by a specific amino acid. The target tissue has the appropriate receptors to make it susceptible to the hormone.
What makes a tissue a target tissue?
Fat tissue and liver
How are synthetic insulins produced?
Most insulins are now produced by recombinant DNA techniques, and are chemically identical to natural human insulin.
What is the destination for a hormone?
Target tissue
Which one is the main primary target tissue of Parathyroid hormone the kidney or bones?
The main primary target tissue of the Parathyroid hormone is the bone, but the kidneys are a target as well.
What tissue does glucagon target?
it targets the liver
Name the cloudy insulins?
novolin 70/30
Do effects of auxin's depend on the target tissue?
true
The effect of auxin depends on the target tissue?
true
What is follicle stimulating hormone target tissue?
ovary and testis
What is the primary target tissue for prolactin?
mammary gland.
