Which of the following statements about steroid hormones is true?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Len [333]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. They bind to carrier proteins in order to be transported in the blood to

their target cells.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are belongs to the class of chemical compound called steroid. Steroid hormones are majorly secreted by three glands - ovaries, testes and adrenal cortex.

Steroid hormones are released in the blood and are allowed to bind to the specific carrier proteins such as corticosteroid-binding globulin and albumin which helps them to carry to the target cells for the functioning.

The steroid hormone binds to receptor proteins in the target cell and not in the plasma membrane

Hence, the correct answer is "B. They bind to carrier proteins in order to be transported in the blood to  their target cells."

Answer:

Both:

-They are both made up of cells embedded in an extracellular matrix. It is the nature of the matrix that defines the properties of these connective tissues.

Cartilage:

-Cartilage is thin, avascular, flexible and resistant to compressive forces.

-Cartilages are soft and flexible components present in ear, nose and joints.

Bone marrow:

-Bone is highly vascularised, and its calcified matrix makes it very strong.

-Bones are hard and tough which gives the structural framework of the skeleton in the body.

Some versions of the periodic table show hydrogen at the top of Group 1A(1) and at the top of Group 7A(17). What properties of h
lawyer [7]

Answer:Hydrogen is placed such because it exhibits some similar characteristics of both group1 and group VII elements.

Explanation:

The reason why hydrogen is similar to group 1 metals:

#It has same valence electron and inorder achieve octet state it can lose that electron and forms H+ ion

#It acts as a good reducing agent similar to group1 metals

#It can also halides

Similarity to halogens:

#hydrogen can also gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration. It can combine with other non metals to form molecules with covalent bonding.

#It exists as diatomin molecule,H2

#Have the same electronegativity nature

#its reaction with other metal

In the reaction ___h2+n2 ->2 NH3, what coefficient should be placed in front of H2 to balance the reaction?
Nataly_w [17]
In order to balance this equation you need to count each element and how many of the individual elements are in the equation.
_H2+N2=2 NH3
You multiply the 2 (Which is the coefficient) by the 3 (which is the subscript) This would equal 6 which indicated there are 6 hydrogen atoms on the right side so the left side should also have 6 hydrogen atoms

The missing coefficient on the left side must multiple the 2 to become 6 hydrogen

A certain gas at 2oC and 1.00 atm pressure fills a 4.0 container. What volume will the gas occupy at 100oC and 780 torr pressure
artcher [175]

The final volume V₂=4.962 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

T₁=20 + 273 = 293 K

P₁= 1 atm

V₁ = 4 L

T₂=100+273 = 373 K

P₂=780 torr=1,02632 atm

Required

The final volume

Solution

Combined gas law :

P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂

Input the value :

V₂=(P₁V₁T₂)/(P₂T₁)

V₂=(1 x 4 x 373)/(1.02632 x 293)

V₂=4.962 L
