- Ex: The hormone insulin helps to regulate blood glucose levels by allowing glucose to be let into the cells to be used for energy]]> 2020-12-14 20:25:10 UTC https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017793498 Exocrine Glands zmgrotegut https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017814443 Ex: Sweat glands release sweat when they detect the body is getting too hot]]> 2020-12-14 20:31:00 UTC https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017814443 Endocrine Glands zmgrotegut https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017815250 Ex: The pancreas (an endocrine gland) secretes the hormone insulin which assists in the regulation of blood glucose levels]]> 2020-12-14 20:31:11 UTC https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017815250 Endocrine system zmgrotegut https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017835441 2020-12-14 20:36:52 UTC https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017835441 Receptors zmgrotegut https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017849632 Receptors on cells allow certain types of hormones to be allowed in to stimulate the cells reaction to the chemical communication initiated by the hormone]]> 2020-12-14 20:41:14 UTC https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017849632 Target Cells zmgrotegut https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017862798 The cells that receive the hormone in order to initiate the process the chemical communication wanted to put into action]]> 2020-12-14 20:45:20 UTC https://padlet.com/zmgrotegut/7trv3pnlhspnlgy2/wish/1017862798
