Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which of the following is a common receptor type that binds steroid hormones?
Step 1: Understand what steroid hormones are. They are a type of hormone that can pass through cell membranes.
Step 2: Learn about receptors. Receptors are proteins that bind to hormones and help transmit signals inside the cell.
Step 3: Identify the type of receptors that bind steroid hormones. These are called nuclear receptors.
Step 4: Know that nuclear receptors are found inside the cell, often in the nucleus, and they help regulate gene expression when they bind to steroid hormones.
