Which one of the following pairs of hormones are the examples of those that can easily pass through the cell membrane of the target cell and bind to a receptor inside it (mostly in the nucleus)?
1 Somatostatin, Oxytocin
2 Cortisol, Testosterone
3 Insulin, Glucagon
4 Thyroxine, Insulin
Explanation:
(b) Cortisol and testosterone are the steroidal hormones. They can easily pass through both the plasma membrane and nuclear membrane.

In hormone action, if receptor molecules are removed from target organ, the target organ will
1 continue to respond to hormone.
2 not respond to hormone.
3 continue to respond but requires higher concentration.
4 continue to respond but in the opposite way.
Explanation:
(b) Hormones produce their effects by binding to the specific receptors located in the target tissues.
