A particular hormone travels by many types of cells in the body. Which mechanism ensures that it acts only on the target cells?

1 answer:

4 0

The mechanism that ensures that it acts only on target cells is that each target cell has a particular receptor for that particular hormone. This makes it impossible for other cells to work with the hormone. This is the reason that different hormones are accepted by different cells very easily. I hope this answer helps you.
