Peptide hormonesMultiple Choiceare able to pass through the membrane and bind to a receptor in the cytoplasm.bind to a receptor in the plasma membrane.act much more slowly than steroid hormones.initiate gene expression.are composed of a complex of four carbon rings.

What must be present for any type of hormone to be able to act on a target cell?Multiple ChoiceProtease enzymesHormone response elementsProtein receptorsProtein channels

Fill in the Blank QuestionFill in the blank question.In order for a hormone to act on a target cell, it must bind to a specific .

Fill in the Blank QuestionFill in the blank question.Protein molecules that act as receptors for nonsteroid hormones typically have a site, which interacts with the hormone. As a result, the site of the receptor interacts with other membrane proteins, triggering a cellular response.

What are proteins that act in a coordinated manner with hormone receptors to mediate gene expression?    Group of answer choicescoreceptorscohormones coactivatorsreceptor-transcription mediatorscotranscription factors

When a steroid hormone binds to its target cell receptor, it:Group of answer choicesalters the membrane’s permeability to G proteins.is converted into cholesterol, which acts as a second messenger.causes the formation of releasing hormones.turns specific genes of the nuclear DNA on or off.causes the formation of cyclic AMP
