Peptide hormones
(Chain, size proteins, 2 Examples, soluble, target side)
polypeptide chain, small protein, oxytoxin, GH, water soluble, target side: extracellular receptors
Lipide hormones or steroid hormones
(derived from _, 3 examples, soluble, target side)
derived from cholesterol, examples: steroid hormones, testosterone, oestradiol, lipid soluble, target side: intracellular receptors
amino acid-derived hormones
(derived from _, 2 ex, soluble, traget side)
derived from single amino acids, ex: tryosine, epinephrine, water soluble, target side: extracellular and transmembrane receptors)
Hypothalamus
(2 main function )
regulates the pituitary gland, many body function

piutitary gland
main function
regulates body function such as metabolism, reproduction, stress,growth, water homeostasis
