The answers are A, B, & C. Steroid hormones have a

proteins in the blood. In other words, they
are bound to protein carriers that transport molecules across the membrane. They can also be stored temporarily in the adipose

while peptides don’t require this process. This is the reason why the effects of
steroid hormones are exerted more slowly than peptides.
