The effect of a hormone on a target cell may be decreased by the presence of Receptors

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hormones mediate changes in garget cells by attaching to explicit hormone receptors. Along these lines, despite the fact that hormones circle all through the body and come into contact with a wide range of cell types, they just influence cells that have the fundamental receptors.

Receptors for a particular hormone might be found on various cells or might be restricted to few specific cells.  Cells can have numerous receptors for a similar hormone yet regularly likewise have receptors for various kinds of hormones.

The quantity of receptors that react to a hormone decides the cell's affectability to that hormone, and the subsequent cell reaction.
