Answer:
Epinephrine binds to receptors on some smooth muscles (ex: around arterioles) → Ca++ released from ER → intracellular Ca++ up → stimulates contraction. c. Epinephrine binds to receptors on some smooth muscles (ex: around bronchioles) → phosphorylates protein needed for response to Ca++, preventing response.

These hormones travels in the blood plasma which is bound to the plasma protein.
Example: Steroidal hormones are highly hydrophobic in nature.Steroids are sex hormones related to the maturity of the body.
