What is one mechanism of hormone action? A. They act as second messengers in the cytoplasm B. They act as enzymes for reactions C. They act as receptor proteins D. They activate genes in the nucleus
Option D. The hormones bind to the target receptor that turns on the enzymatic interest of the cell to result in biochemical adjustments. Transcription of DNA is initiated through the hormone-receptor complex. The mRNA is translated into protein. This protein reasons biochemical adjustments in the cell. Hence, They activate genes in the nucleus.
