8360395125Nervous system releases:Neurotransmitter at synapses0
8360410027Nervous system causes:In effect in fractions of a second1
8360436849Nervous system effectsAre short-lived2
8360453174Endocrine system releasesHormones into interstitial fluid/blood3
8360470841Endocrine system causesAffects much more slowly4
8360479305Endocrine system affectsLinger until hormone is cleared5
8360487145Endocrine glands secrete products throughDucks to the surface of a structure example sweat glands6
8360512353Endocrine glands secrete products (hormones) intoInterstitial fluid7
8360560092Endocrine glands secrete products into interstitial fluid what will then carry hormonesBlood will then carry hormones throughout the body8
8360793875Hormones are carried byBlood9
8360801753Target cells haveReceptors that bind specific hormones can have thousands of receptors10
8360827693Cells may have more than one type of receptor this means you can respond toMore than one type of form on11
8360835990Lipid soluble hormones work byDiffusion through lipid bilayer and binding to intracellular receptors12
8360839338Lipid soluble hormones includeSteroids thyroid hormones and nitric oxide13
8360856649SteroidsDerivatives of cholesterol14
8360862171Water soluble hormones can'tDiffuse through lipid Bilayer so blind to receptors on cell service15
8360885135In water-soluble hormones the hormone binding to receiver works asThe first messenger16
8360898246The first Messenger activates a second messenger in a cell and includesAmino acid derivatives peptides proteins17
8360922622Control of hormone secretion's release occurs inShort bursts18
8360927885Presence of stimuliEndocrine glands release hormones in more frequent burst19
8360931725Absence of stimuli20
