Answer:

internal receptor binding

Explanation:

This is because steroid hormones are lipids by nature (usually composed of cholesterol) so they are hydrophobic. This means that steroid hormones can easy pass through the membrane and bind to their internal receptors.

Internal receptors also known as intracellular receptors have DNA binding domain and when hormones bind to them DNA-binding site becomes exposed. Hormone-receptor complex gets into the nucleus and binds to  regulatory regions of the DNA. Cellular response is gene expression.

Explanation:

Hormones are chemical signals secreted by animals and plant that are capable of regulating body activities and maintain homeostasis.

They are transported in the circulatory system of the body

The action of hormones can be seen after the hormone has bound to its specific receptor found inside the cell.

For instance, steroid hormone and the thyroid hormones can pass through the plasma membrane to their receptors inside the cells.

Anton [14]

Answer:

To regulate water balance in the body

Explanation:

The kidneys are two bean shaped renal organs which perform a host of functions for the body such as regulating fluid balance, filtering minerals from the blood etc. Among their functions is the regulation of water balance in the body through the antidiuretic hormone.

When an athlete completes a physical activity and sweats a lot, the kidney reacts to the loss of water by sweat by adjusting urine output causing the body to produce lower and more concentrated urine.
