What is a hormone-response element? a. a receptor for a steroid hormone b. a receptor for a polypeptide hormone c. a segment of DNA where a hormone–receptor complex binds d. an enzyme that is activated in response to hormone binding and produces a second messenger

Hello everyone here. We have a question asking, where does the steroid hormone receptor complex bind in order to regulate gene transcription? And our answer choices are a hormone response elements in R. N. A. B. Hormone response element in D. N. A. C. Hormone response elements and proteins or D hormone response elements in enzymes. So our answer is going to be the hormone response elements in D. N. A. And the hormone response elements in D N. A. R. Upstream areas to coding sequences that hormone receptors complex activate. There are short sequences of D. N. A. Where steroid hormone receptors bind in order to modify gene expression by acting as transcription factors or by activating transcription factors So it either active it either access the transcription factor itself or it will activate those transcription factors. So again our answer is B hormone response element in D. N. A. Thank you for watching. Bye.
