The correct answers are:

• How soluble the hormone is in water. Depending on is it hydrophilic or hydrophobic. For example steroid hormones (derived from lipids) are hydrophobic, meaning that are insoluble in water so they must have transport protein for the blood transport.

• whether the hormone will be able to move through the cell membrane. Hormones derived from lipids are able to pass through the membrane because are able to diffuse through the lipid bilayer. Hydrophilic hormones (from amino acids) are unable to diffuse through the lipid bilayer

• whether the hormone interacts with receptors on the cell membrane.  

• whether the hormone interacts with receptors inside the cell

Hormones that diffuse freely through the membrane have internal receptors. Others have cell membrane receptors.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

As the white light moves through the two faces of the prism, the different colors bend different amounts and in doing so spread out into a rainbow. In a rainbow, raindrops in the air act as tiny prisms. Light enters the raindrop, reflects off of the side of the drop and exits.
