Answer: Endocrine

A chemical signal produced in the pituitary gland at the base of the brain binds to a receptor on liver cells. This signal would be classified as an endocrine signal.

Explanation:

An endocrine signal is produced by a cell that targets a distant cell through the bloodstream.

Hence, a endocrine signal (carried by hormones) produced at the base of the brain (usually an endocrine gland) travels through the bloodstream to the target cell and binds to a receptor on the liver, and then exerts its function.

Which region in the United States has the fewest thunderstorms per year?
Serga [27]

Answer:

Pacific Northwest

Explanation:

In the United States, the Pacific Northwest is the region that receives the least thunderstorm in a year. This is because of the location of the region. The region consists of states like Washington, California, Alaska, Hawaii, and Oregon. This region has few thunderstorms due to the nature of the region. The coldness of the pacific ocean means that there is more colder air on the earth. This suppressed the hot air. Thus, conventional rainfall; with thunder is less common. The other factor is the dryness of the region. The dry region has a lower humidity. This lesson the chance of charges air between the two fronts.
