Answer:

The correct answer is - bind to receptors in the nucleus of the target cells.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are the chemical compounds that are a member of the class of steroids and act as hormones. These hormones are released by the adrenal cortex, testes and ovaries in the body placenta also release steroid hormone during pregnancy.

The steroid hormones do not bind to the plasma membrane of the target cell but binds to the receptors present on the nucleus of the cell. These cells pass through the cell and reach the nucleus and bind to it or gene to produce proteins for the biological process.

Thus, the correct answer is - bind to receptors in the nucleus of the target cells.

Which characteristic differentiates amphibians from reptiles?
Stells [14]

Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.

Explanation:

The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.

The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.

Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac .
