Homework - Hormones - Help...

[laila]

Hi

I am just doing my reflexology homework for the endocrine system and one of the questions is give 2 outcomes of what happens to a hormone once it has done its work.

I have looked in my textbooks but cannot find the answer. I have a feeling I know the answer already and it is probably really obvious - it's at the back of my mind but I cannot seem to figure out what the answer is to put on paper.

Please, please, can someone help out here........

Thanks ever so much

What a good question! I can't say I have ever come across this one.
Suppose they get metabolised out of the way and the chemicals recycled or dispersed in the body's waste (via liver).

Hi

Thanks for the reply - I found out the answer is that the hormone is excreted or recycled - makes sense..

Thanks again.
