Detailed explanation-1: -Endocrine glands release hormones into the bloodstream. This lets the hormones travel to cells in other parts of the body. The endocrine hormones help control mood, growth and development, the way our organs work, metabolism, and reproduction. The endocrine system regulates how much of each hormone is released.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hormones travel throughout the body, either in the blood stream or in the fluid around cells, looking for target cells. Once hormones find a target cell, they bind with specific protein receptors inside or on the surface of the cell and specifically change the cell’s activities.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hormones are secreted from glands into the blood and then carried to their target organs where they exert their effects. They carry instructions to cells all over the body. Once the hormones reach a target cell they bind to receptors on the inside or the outside of the cell.
