Endocrine Minions

Hey... Hey guys! Huh? I bet I can reach farther than you because I'm smarter No no, no way. I bet I know more about the Endocrine System than you! For instance, there are 3 groups of hormones: Amino Acid Derivatives, Peptide Hormones, and Lipid Derivatives. See! It's not even a contest! DUH. Most of the hormones in the body are Peptide Hormones. Ugh... Peptides. Ah ha! Not to mention they're based on chemical structure. Did you know that steroid hormones are released by reproductive organs, the adrenal cortex, and the kidneys?! Of course I do! They're also bound to plasma proteins, keeping them in circulation much longer. I'll show you plasma proteins! STOP STOP STOP HA, I'll show them... Bet you guys didn't know the endocrine system shares chemical messengers with the nervous system!!! Well that's all... Hope you guys enjoyed this video!
