Do hormones enter cells through exocytosis or pinocytosis?
Some hormones enter cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis.
Some hormones enter cells via?
Some hormones enter cells by the process of endocytosis. Endocytosis is where cells absorb molecules. All cells in the body use this process.
How do hormones leave the cell?
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 .
Are hormones transported throughout the whole body?
Yes. Hormones are transported throughout the body, via the bloodstream. They do not, however, effect every cell. Only certain cells in the body have the proper receptor sites to accomodate hormones. Therefore, even though hormones are transported right through the body, they only create a reaction for certain things.
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.

Can hormones alter the enzyme activity in cells?
Yes. Hormones may stimulate the reversible covalent modification of an enzyme via phosphorylation or dephosphorylation and alter the activity of the molecule.
Where does the pituitary gland hormones go?
The pituitary gland is endocrine and so all the hormones it produces enter the blood stream. They do this via the circle of willis which is a ring of vessels that's surrounds the gland. As endocrine hormones they travel throughout the body.

Which hormone is released when you sleep at night and how does it work inducing sleep?
Hormones are chemical messengers that are secreted by the endocrine glands into the blood. Hormones are transported via the bloodstream to reach specific cells, called target cells, in other tissues. They produce a specific effect on the activity of cells that are remotely located from their point of origin.
What are large protein molecules from its mother's milk that enter the cells lining the baby's digestive tract via?
endocytosis
What is the function of the respiratory and circulatorysystem?
Supply fuel and oxygen to the cells, and to remove waste products. They also aid in heat distribution, and information (via hormones) spread.
How brain control our body?
Via voluntary nerves, via autonomic nerves, and via hormones.
A major difference between neurotransmitters and hormones is that hormones reach their destination via?
blood
How do the signals of the endocrine system get transmitted to their appropriate target cells?
The endocrine system is a system of glands that secrete hormones (made of proteins) into the blood stream. Once in the blood, these hormones bind to other protein called receptors in the membranes of the target cells. This is how signals are transmitted
