The Importance of Hormones. The function of hormones in the body is inarguably very important; even the slightest change in how a hormone works could impact the entire body. In order to perform all the necessary processes normally, such as growth, development, metabolism, movement, and reproduction, hormones are needed.ut simply, hormones are the body s chemical messengers that relay a signal from cell to cell. Endocrine glands produce and release these hormones into the bloodstream, where they will travel and bind with a specific receptor, to reproduce or to trigger the production of proteins.
Hormone, organic substance secreted by plants and animals that functions in the regulation of physiological activities and in maintaining homeostasis. Hormones carry out their functions by evoking responses from specific organs or tissues that are adapted to react to minute quantities of them.
