Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Hormones are transported from the place of origin to the target cells through the blood. Each hormone acts upon only those cells which have specific receptors.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hormones are powerful messenger molecules that control essential body functions by carrying messages from endocrine glands to target cells and tissues.
