Description
Insect Hormones
• A hormone is a chemical signal sent from cells in one
part of an organism to cells in another part (or parts) of
the same individual. They are often regarded as chemical messengers.
• Typically produced in very small quantities, but cause profound changes in their target cells
• Their effect may be stimulatory or inhibitory
• In some cases, a single hormone may have multiple targets and cause different effects in each target
• Examples of processes controlled by hormones include moulting, metamorphosis, oocyte development (vitellogenesis), colour change and diurnal rhythms of activity
