Question

We have already talked about another class of chemicals that help send signals in the body – neurotransmitters. how are neurotransmitters and hormones similar and how are they different

Answer 1

Hormones are the chemical messengers of the endocrine system and are transported by blood to distal target cells.Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers found in the nervous system that specifically do the transmission across the synaptic cleft, where the space exists between two axons.They both carry messages but belong to different systems of the body.
