Why aren't tissue affected by hormones?

Tissues may not be affected by hormones if they do not have receptors for those specific hormones. Hormones can only exert their effects on tissues that have the appropriate receptors to bind and respond to them. This specificity helps to ensure that each hormone can target the specific tissues and organs it needs to regulate.


Do proteins form hormones enzymes and connective tissue?

Enzymes are catalytic proteins. Connective tissue is, well, tissue and is made of cells, but proteins such as collagen do play an important role. Some hormones are proteins and some are not. An example of a protein that serves as a hormone is insulin. However, hormones such as testosterone or thyroxin are NOT proteins.


How does the target tissue become stimulated by a hormone while other tissue remain unaffected?

Target tissues are stimulated by hormones due to the presence of specific receptors that recognize and bind to those hormones. When a hormone binds to its receptor on the target tissue, it triggers a cellular response that can lead to various physiological effects. In contrast, tissues that lack these specific receptors do not respond to the hormone, allowing for selective stimulation and regulation of physiological processes. This specificity ensures that hormones can exert their effects only where needed, maintaining proper bodily functions.


What types of cells either form a barrier that controls passage of molecules or forms glands?

Epithelial cells form barriers that control the passage of molecules through tissues and organs. They can also form glandular cells that secrete substances such as hormones or enzymes.

What hormone is referred to as the tissue hormone?

Prostaglandins are the group of hormones referred to as tissue hormones.


Definition of Tissue Specificity?

Tissue specificity refers to the exclusive or predominant expression of a gene or protein in a particular type of tissue within an organism. This specificity allows for the proper functioning of cells and tissues by ensuring that certain genes are only active in specific locations. Variations in tissue-specific gene expression can contribute to the diversity and specialization of different cell types.

What tissue system synthesizes hormones?

epithelium tissue. the pancreas secretes insulin through endocrine glands of the islet of pancreatic langerhorns. There are also other forms of epithelium that secrete hormones.


What is an advantage of tissue specificity?

There are no advantages, just disadvantages. Just kidding, I don't know the answer to this question. My apologies. Have a good day.


Is Adrenal cortex is made of neural tissue?

No, the adrenal cortex is not made of neural tissue. It is the outer region of the adrenal glands and is derived from mesoderm, not neural tissue. The adrenal cortex is responsible for producing hormones such as cortisol and aldosterone.
