Non steroid hormones cannot diffuse freely through the cell membrane, therefore they interact with membrane receptors. There are many different types of receptors, many of which result in an increase in cellular [Ca2+], and increased cellular [Ca2+] can have a myriad of effects including cytoskeleton restructuring, muscle fibre contraction, regulation of calcium-dependent enzymes, action potential generation, secretion of vesicles, and even apoptosis. The increase in cellular [Ca2+] can be caused by as simple as the opening of a ligand(hormone)-gated calcium channel. Another far more complex, but somewhat more common pathway involves the hormone binding to a G-protein coupled receptor or a receptor tyrosine kinase, causing the receptor to activate an enzyme called PLC (phospholipase C) that will cleave a membrane phospholipid (phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate, PIP2) into two components (Inositol triphosphate, IP3, and Diacylglycerol, DAG). IP3 localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and releases sequestered Ca2+, and DAG provides an anchor for another enzyme, PKC (protein kinase C). Anchored PKC is activated by the released Ca2+ and it begins to perform its duty, which is to add a phosphate group onto specific substrates, activating or deactivating them, causing a general shift in cellular dynamics.
All non steroid hormones are proteinacious and can't enter cell .they attach with fixed membrane receptor which activates an enzymes that activates a second messenger i.e. cAMP that carries message in side cell .
second messengers
hormones
Most hormones reach target cells by blood . Some types of hormones reach target cells by other ways e.g. pheromones via air ; local hormones via diffusion etc .

Their target cells must formulate new proteins before an effect can take place.
Intracellular
The intracellular receptors differ from membrane receptors based on their location. Membrane receptors are usually on the plasma membrane but the intracellular receptors are found inside the cell.

Stress hormones can focus concentration and speed reaction time.
Hormones. Fool.
Hormones have nothing to do in reflex arc.
