Question

Hi I hope you're doing fine.

I need help with these questions please!

 

thank you!

**Why are receptors for steroid hormones located inside the cell instead of being on the cell membrane?** Steroid hormones are lipophilic, meaning they can easily pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. This characteristic allows them to reach their intracellular receptors directly. Unlike peptide hormones that bind to membrane receptors, steroid hormones do not need an external receptor to transmit signals into the cell. Once inside, they bind to specific receptors in the cytoplasm or nucleus, influencing gene expression and directly affecting cellular functions. This mechanism allows for a more direct and prolonged effect on the target cells.
