Where are steroid receptors generally located and where do they bind the steroid hormone once it enters the cell: A. They are located and bind the steroids in the middle of the cell membrane
B. They are located and bind the steroids in the cytoplasm
C. They are located and bind the steroids on the intracellular membrane surface
D. The receptors are located in the cytoplasm but they bind their ligands in the lysosomes.

B. They are located and bind the steroids in the cytoplasm

Explanation: Steroid hormones are a class of organic compounds, typically lipids. They bind to protein receptors in the cytoplasm or nucleus of the target cell and thus, their receptors are located inside target cells where they function as ligand-dependent transcription factors. This is to say that hormone-receptor complex formed on binding to DNA activates specific genes that increases production of proteins.
