A) is the site of protein synthesis B) contains the genetic code C) transforms cellular energy D) initiates aerobic metabolism 2 Although energy is not made in mitochondria, they are known as the power plants of the cell because they: A) contain RNA for protein synthesis. B) utilize glycolysis fo...

Discuss the way in which hormones promote body homeostasis. Correct Answer Get stimulated when homeostasis is thrown off Compare and contrast the endocrine system and the nervous system. Make sure you understand the differences between a neurotransmitter and a hormone, addressing the importance of receptor specificity. Correct Answer Endocrine - Uses hormones released by endocrine glands Effects many effector organs (i.e. HGH to all muscles) Is slower and longer lasting Nervous - Uses el...
