cells ir many different parts of the body. Which of the following
mechanisms explains the best way for the hormone to efficiently reach all
of its target cells?

The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be carried throughout the

The hormone reacts with neurons close by that signal the target cells throughout the
body

The hormone is transported by local regulation to cells close by that trigger the target

specific receptors for the signal

Hurry please I’m taking a exam

Answer 1

The correct answer is the first option:-

The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be carried throughout the body to the target cells with specific receptors.

I learnt in biology that hormones are transported through blood so they reach the specific receptors and act upon them so am sure this is the answer!.

The other options aren't right for the question.
