Answer:

Target cell:is a specialized cell that can recognize a hormone's chemical structure.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Target cells are those which respond to the hormone because they have receptors that recognize a hormone's chemical structure
  • The target cell is very specific because of their response to a specific organ.
  • The target cell is different for every hormone because they have a specific receiver.
