How can a hormone that is present in very small quantities within the bloodstream elicit such a large response within a cell?
-Cells degrade the hormone into many tiny molecules, and then each piece creates a response within the cell. -The hormone is only taken up by the largest cells in the body, and thus it can elicit a large response. -The hormone is always an extra large macromolecule even though it is present in minute quantities. -The message from the hormone is amplified many times within the cell.
