Hormones are chemical messengers that travel through the blood to distant organs, while enzymes are catalysts that speed up reactions in specific locations.
Hormones act within the body that produces them, whereas pheromones are secreted externally to affect other individuals of the same species.
نکات کاربردی
While 'hormone' is a noun, it is frequently used as a noun adjunct (like an adjective) in medical terminology, such as in 'hormone treatment' or 'hormone receptor'. When describing a person's mood or physical state related to these chemicals, the adjective 'hormonal' is more appropriate.
اشتباهات رایج
Learners often forget that 'hormone' is a countable noun and should be used with an article or in the plural form. Additionally, avoid using 'hormone' as a direct adjective; use 'hormonal' for descriptions (e.g., 'a hormonal change' instead of 'a hormone change').
