Sagot :
Answer:
Most hormones circulate in blood, coming into contact with essentially all cells. However, a given hormone usually affects only a limited number of cells, which are called target cells. A target cell responds to a hormone because it bears receptors for the hormone.
Answer:
According to toppr
Receptors are specific proteins located on target tissues to which specific hormones bind to produce their effect.
Binding of a hormone to its receptor leads to the formation of a hormone-receptor complex. Formation of Hormone-Receptor complex leads to certain biochemical changes in the target tissue.
Hence Receptor site responds to a hormone.
So, the correct answer is 'Receptor'.
