Vedclass · Answer

(D) Steroid hormones are lipid-soluble and can easily cross the plasma membrane of the target cell.Once inside the cell,they bind to specific intracellular receptor proteins to form a hormone-receptor complex.This hormone-receptor complex then enters the nucleus and binds to specific regulatory sequences of $DNA$ (hormone response elements).This binding interaction directly influences the transcription of target genes,thereby regulating gene expression.
