Choose one or more answers a Intranuclear b Extracellular c Intracellular 8 After undergoing conformational changes, steroid hormone receptors can bind directly to DNA causing an increase or decreased transcription? Choose one or more answers a True b False 9 A peptide hormone can either activate or inhibit enzyme activities. a False b True 10 Why do the effects of steroid hormones last longer than peptide hormones? Choose one or more answers a Steroid hormones cause changes in the amount of mRNA b Steroid hormones cause changes in the amount of proteins. c Steroid hormones have direct action on DNA. d Because of their non polar nature, steroid hormones last longer in the cell membrane. 11 Steroid hormones do not require transport proteins in the bloodstream. a True. Steroid hormones are water soluble so they can be transported freely in the blood. b True. Steroid hormones are not water soluble so they can be transported freely in the blood. c False. Steroid hormone and not water soluble so they require transport proteins in the bloodstream. d False, Steroid hormones are water soluble so they require transport proteins in the blood stream. 12 The levels of carrier proteins in the blood change the levels of active hormones. Choose one or more answers a True b False 13 All of the following are amino acid-derivative hormones except a Epinephrine/nor-epinephrine b Cortisol c triiodothyronine d thyroxine 14 Which of the following are not peptide hormones?
