Invertebrate Endocrinology Overview of the Endocrine System * System of ductless glands that secrete hormones * Hormones are “messenger molecules” * Circulate in the blood * Act on distant target cells * Target cells respond to the hormones for which they have receptors * The effects are dependent on the programmed response of the target cells * Hormones are just molecular triggers * Basic categories of hormones * Amino acid based: modified amino acids (or amines)

They both have a co-ordination role and send instructions to other parts of the body. The nervous system does this by way of neurotransmitters‚( chemical messengers)‚ which are able to get messages through at very high speeds‚ and the endocrine system by way of hormones‚( also chemical messengers)‚ which are released from glands and travel
