Hormone Production – Quiz

Hormones are produced by the glands in the (circulatory system/endocrine system).

They are released to reach the target cells. They bind to the receptors in the (cell wall/cell membrane).

In humans, there are three general categories of hormones. They are peptide hormones, amino acid derivatives, and (nucleic acids/steroids).

An example of hormone is (growth hormone/cortisone) that is involved in regulating growth.

Another is (cortisone/epinephrine) that is released by the adrenal medulla during "fight or flight" response.
