Plant hormones are unlike animal hormones because A. they are produced only in small amounts; B. they have different effects on different organs; C. they are not produced in specialized glands; D. they are mobile and can move throughout the plant body; E. interactions among different plant hormones can determine their ultimate effect on an organ.

What are plant hormones? A. chemicals produced in low concentrations that transmit signals between cells B. chemicals produced in high concentrations that transmit signals between cells C. a group of chemicals synthesized by glands that cause physiological changes D. distasteful chemicals produced in leaves and shoots to deter herbivores
Adi S.
A plant cell's response to a hormone depends on _____. a. which hormone receptors it has b. the way its hormone receptors work inside the cell c. the presence or absence of other hormones d. all of the above
Hormones are essential for facilitating communication between cells, which can help maintain homeostasis within the body. Explain how hormones facilitate communication on a molecular level. a. A hormone is released in response to a stimulus, travels through the body, and then binds to receptors of the target cell to illicit a response. b. A hormone is released from the pituitary gland body, and then binds to a receptor of a target cell to illicit response. c. A hormone is released in response to a stimulus, travels through the body, and then binds to receptors to stimulate the signaling pathway. d. A hormone is released in response to a stimulus, travels through the body and then binds to the intracellular receptors of target cells to illicit a response.
