The mechanism that ensures that it acts only on target cells is that each target cell has a particular receptor for that particular hormone.

For the population to shoot up to 90 all of a sudden, it may be that one or more of the population limiting factors has been removed from the population. <u>It could be that a major predator has been removed from the community or the competition for food/space is now significantly reduced due to more food/space in the community. </u>
