It functions as a neurotransmitter. The chemical messenger which is responsible for the transportation of massage from the nerve cell to the target cell via the synapse is called a neurotransmitter.
Thyroxine: Thyroid glands produce two types of hormones. These are T3 or triiodothyronine and thyroxine or T4. Thyroxine is responsible for regulating the metabolic rate of the body.
