Cell Signalling *suitable for home teaching*

Produced in 2014, this resource looks at cell signalling when the hormone adrenaline binds to receptors on the surface of the target cell. The resource sheets describe how the original hormonal signal is amplified through a cascade reaction.

Supporting videos explain key areas of working scientifically, including developing a hypothesis, controlling variables, checking for errors, working with precision and the peer review process.

This resource was designed by the National Institute of Medical Research for the Science Learning Centres and funded by Research Councils UK (RCUK).
