◉ Additive synergy. Answer: All have similar effects and add
together for a larger result.


◉ Complementary synergy. Answer: All have different effects that
work together to achieve a desired end result.


◉ Lipophilic hormones. Answer: Steroids and amines, can be taken
orally, can pass through target cell membrane.


◉ Polar hormones. Answer: Polypeptides and glycoproteins, cannot
be taken orally, cannot pass through target cell membranes.


◉ Polar hormone mechanism. Answer: Binds to a receptor in the cell
membrane, activates one of 3 known second messenger
mechanisms, second messenger trigger metabolic change.


◉ Regular lipophilic hormone mechanism. Answer: Passes through
target cell membrane and binds to cytoplasmic receptor, hormone
receptor complex binds to a hormone response element on the DNA,
promoting transcription.

, ◉ Prehormones lipophilic hormone mechanism. Answer: Passes
through target cell membrane converted to active form, activated
hormone binds to nuclear receptor protein promoting transcription.


◉ Both lipophilic hormone mechanism. Answer: mRNA directs
protein synthesis for metabolic change.


◉ Prolactin. Answer: Hormone that targets mammary glands.


◉ Adrenocorticotropic hormone. Answer: Targets the adrenal gland
(cortex).
