The endocrine glands are responsible for sending messages to target cells in the body. These glands secrete hormones into the bloodstream, which then travel to specific target cells where they exert their effects by binding to specific receptors on the cell surface. Examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal glands.
What else can I help you with?
Hormones rather then electrical impulses sometimes used to send messages?
Yes, hormones are often used to send messages between cells in the body. These chemical messengers are produced by glands and released into the bloodstream to travel to target tissues and organs. Hormones can regulate a wide range of physiological processes, such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
What type of human cells send messages?
neurons cell
How do different organs and tissues commmunicate the cells?
If you meant communicate with cells than there are 3 systems available for communication. Nervous (including neuro secretory) and endocrine and exocrine glands. the first uses neurons and electrical impulses to transmit messages throughout the body, neuro secretory cells are used in the hypothalamus to controls the pituitary glands. Endocrine and exocrine glands both use hormones which are either sent to cells to control them or to other glands.
What is the major difference between exocrine and endocrine glands?
I think the student wanted to ask about the difference between an exocrine and endocrine gland but mistakened and wrote both the same. Exocrine gland differ from Endocrine gland because in case of exocrine glands ezymes are secreted by ducts carrying them to their site of actions but in case of endocrine hormones are secreted in body without ducts and are cariied by circulatory fluid of the organism.
Which cells produce antibodies and release them into the blood?
Hormones are biological chemicals that are found in plants and animals. Hormones are produced by living cells.They are used to send messages to other cells. These messages can be sent to nearby cells or to far-away cells. If a cell wants to send a message to a nearby cell, it puts the hormone into the tissue around it. If an animal's cell a message to a far-away cell, it puts the hormone into the blood. When a hormone is put in the blood it goes to all parts of the animal's body. Sometimes the cell that gets the message can even be the same cell that made the hormone (and sent the message.)The cell or tissue that gets the message is called the target cell.Many different kinds of cells can send a message. There are some kinds of cells whose main job is to make hormones. When many of these cells are together in one place, it is called a gland. Glands are groups of cells that make something and release it (put it outside the cell). Some glands make hormones.Endocrine means something that is made by cells and released into the blood or tissue. So endocrine glands form hormones and release them into the blood or tissue. The opposite word is exocrine and means released outside of the body. An example of exocrine is sweat glands or saliva glands. When people say endocrine they usually mean glands that make hormones.//
Where do glands send messages to target cells?
Glands send messages in the form of hormones to target cells through the bloodstream. Hormones are released by glands into the blood where they travel to target cells throughout the body to elicit a specific response. Target cells have specific receptors that recognize and respond to the hormones.
How do the endocrine and nervous systems work together?
Nerves tell glands when to release chemicals. Nerves send messages to glands. Apex- Nerves instruct glands to send out hormones.
Hormones rather then electrical impulses sometimes used to send messages?
Yes, hormones are often used to send messages between cells in the body. These chemical messengers are produced by glands and released into the bloodstream to travel to target tissues and organs. Hormones can regulate a wide range of physiological processes, such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
What cells in your body send and receive messages?
The basic cells that the body uses for rapid communication and control are neurons. The cells that carry signals to muscles and glands are the motor neurons.
Where do nerve cells send the messages?
the brain
What type of human cells send messages?
neurons cell
What describes cells?
Specialized cells that send messages from one part of the body to another.
Receptor cells for the vestibular sense send messages to the?
frontal lobes
How do hormones send messages?
Hormones are chemical messengers produced by endocrine glands and released into the bloodstream. They travel through the body and bind to specific receptors on target cells, triggering a response. This can influence processes such as growth and development, metabolism, and stress response.
What are specific characteristics of muscle cells?
Specialized cells that send messages from one part of the body to another.
Which gland partners with the hypothalamus to send messages to all other endocrine glands concerning hormone production and secretion?
pituitary gland
What part of the nervous system helps send messages to the right place?
the motor cells
