When a steroid hormone reaches its target cell, it readily travels through the cell membrane. What will happen next? The hormone binds to a receptor inside the nucleus and then exits the nucleus.(My answer) The hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane and then exits the nucleus. The hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane and then enters the nucleus. The hormone binds to a receptor inside the cytoplasm and then enters the nucleus.

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

yes

OpenStudy (yoo59):

is the correct answer A ?

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

Hormones are molecules produced and secreted by endocrine glands in the body. These hormones are released into the blood and travel to other parts of the body where they bring about specific responses from specific cells. Steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol and are lipid-soluble molecules. Examples of steroid hormones include the sex hormones (androgens, estrogens, and progesterone) produced by male and female gonads and hormones of the adrenal glands (aldosterone, cortisol, and androgens). How Steroid Hormones Work Steroid hormones cause changes within a cell by first passing through the cell membrane of the target cell. Steroid hormones, unlike non-steroid hormones, can do this because they are fat-soluble. Cell membranes are composed of a phospholipid bilayer which prevents fat-insoluble molecules from diffusing into the cell. Once inside the cell the steroid hormone binds with a specific receptor found only in the cytoplasm of the target cell.

i think it is The hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane and then exits the nucleus.

OpenStudy (yoo59):

why ^

OpenStudy (bonnieisflash1.0):

because the thing can not get in you cell but it can get on your cell

OpenStudy (yoo59):
