Questions and Answers

Where do steroid hormones bind to exert their effect on target cells?

  • In the Golgi apparatus.
  • In the endoplasmic reticulum.
  • On the cell surface receptors.
  • Within the cytoplasm. (correct)

    • What is the primary mode of action for steroid hormones in influencing cellular activities?

  • Binding to cell surface receptors and activating second messenger systems.
  • Inducing the release of neurotransmitters in the target cell.
  • Altering the lipid composition of the cell membrane.
  • Directly interacting with DNA and regulating gene expression. (correct)

    • How do steroid hormones typically exert their effect on target cells?

  • By altering the ion concentration in the target cell.
  • By breaking down into smaller peptides that enter the cell.
  • By binding to receptors on the cell surface.
  • By directly entering the cell and influencing gene expression. (correct)
