64. Which general mechanism of hormone action would be
appropriate for LH?
A. Binding to receptor within the cytosol
B. Binding to receptor outside cell
C. Binding to receptor both inside and outside the cell
D. Binding to a free receptor in plasma
E. None of these
Answer: (A) Binding to receptor within the cytosol.
( The mechanism of hormone action would be appropriate for LH as it binds with the cytosol i.e. the aqueous component of the cytoplasm)
