Chapter 38, Problem 1CBQ
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The role of hormones in animal development.
Introduction:
Hormones are the chemical messengers that are secreted into the blood by the glands present in our body. They are transported to the target organs via the circulatory system. They help in the development of growth,
