Hormone

Categories: Health
  • Hormones are biochemicals which are produced in very small amounts in organisms, but they can exert a large effect on the physiological processes they regulate. In plants, there are five different hormones: auxin, gibberellin, abscisic acid, cytokinen and ethylene. These hormones variously affect how cells grow, fruit ripening, leaf fall and other plant processes. In animals, hormones and produced in the endocrine system and in other tissues. There are over 50 different hormones produced in the human body, most of which are produced with the endocrine system and they affect the processes of maturation, circadian rhythms, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, digestion, sexuality, and other metabolic processes. http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Sciences/BotanicalSciences/PlantHormones/Hormones/Plant%20Hormones.htm http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/H/HormoneTable.html/ref
