Explanation:
A hormone (from the Greek participle "setting in motion") is any member of a class of signaling molecules, produced by glands in multicellular organisms, that are transported by the circulatory system to target distant organs to regulate physiology and behavior.[1] Hormones have diverse chemical structures, mainly of three classes:
eicosanoids
steroids
amino acid/protein derivatives (amines, peptides, and proteins)
