Endocrine System

grow, develope and mantain homeostasis.
Hormones
This are chemical
signals made by
endocrine system.
Steroid Hormones
All of them are made of
cholesterol, a type of
lipid.They can enter its
target cell by diffusing
through the cell
membrane
Nonsteroid Hormones
There are tre types of
nonsteroid hormines that are
made up of one or more
amino acids. They dont enter
their target cells. They bind
to their `rotein receptor on
the cells membrane and
caus a chemical reaction.
