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.
What accounts for the fact that cells in different tissues and organisims have different functions and respond differently to their environments?
Cells in different tissues and organisms have different functions and respond differently to their environments because they are expressing different genes. Different cells can have very different physical characteristics.
Why thyroxin is called as calorigenic hormone?
Thyroxin is a calorigenic hormone because it increases oxygen uptake and metabolism by the tissues and thus accelerates energy production,i.e., increases BMR
Is your heart a organ made out of muscle tissues nerve tissues and blood tissues?
Different cells work together to form tissues. Different tissues that work together form organs. Different organs that work together form organ systems and these work together to form an organism. Cells>tissues>organs>organs systems>organism.
What is a structure that is made up of different kinds of tissues?
An organ is a structure that is composed of 2 or more different kinds of tissues.

What hormone works with the parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels in the tissues?
aldosterene
If hormones travel in the bloodstream why don't all tissues respond to all hormones?
The tissue/cells need a receptor that can interact with that hormone in order to respond to it. This receptor may be on a cell membrane, inside the cell, or even inside the nucleus (in the case of steroid hormones, for example.) Like many organic chemicals in the body, they have structures which result in certain parts of the molecule being presented to cells (active sites). Because cells and tissue have different structures as well, only certain cells will react to the presence of a particular hormone. Many hormones have antagonist hormones that cause an opposite effect. This helps control negative feedback when the target organ's hormone levels are too high.
Most tissues are targets for what hormone?
Thyroid hormone is the hormone that controls how each cell in the body metabolizes energy.
Calcium levels in the blood and tissues are regulated by calcitonin working with the hormone?
The parathyroid hormone
Which hormone works with the paraythyroid hormone to regultae calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
Calcitonin
What hormone works with the parathyroid hormone to decrease calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
calcitonin
The hormone that works with the parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels in the blood and tissues is?
Calcitonin
What hormone is excreted by the parathyroid glands and regulates calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
Parathyroid hormone
What is a chemical that tells your organs and tissues what to do called?
Hormone
When tissues are injured which hormone promotes an inflammatory response?
Prostaglandin
