Best Answer: Aldosterone stimulates cation pumps in cell membranes of the kidneys to conserve Na+ & Cl- and also remove K+ thereby maintaining the osmotic concentration of body fluids. Cortisol would target liver cells for glucose/glycogen synthesis. Adrenaline would target the sympathetic nervous system.
Target cells are specific to the hormone; a hormone specific to a target cell can only affect that target tissue because of the presence of receptors for the hormone on the target cells. Some endocrine glands are so complex and so specific that certain sections of the gland produce different hormones.
