What is the chemical messengers of the body's network of chemical control called?
"hormones"
What recognizes a hormone's chemical structure?
Hormones are recognized by specific receptors on target cells that match their chemical structure. These receptors are typically proteins that bind to the hormone molecule, triggering a response within the cell. The binding of the hormone to its receptor initiates a signaling cascade that leads to the cellular response.
Chemical substances secreted by cells into the extracellular fluids that regulate the metabolic function of other cells in the body are called?
