Solution:
Peptide hormones that interact with membrane-bound receptors normally do not enter the target cell but generate second messengers (e.g., cyclic AMP, IP3, Ca+2, etc.) which in turn regulate cellular metabolism. Examples of peptide hormones is insulin, glucagon, pituitary hormones, hypothalamic hormones, etc.
