Question

Which of the following forms a hormone receptor complex on the cell membrane? (A) Cortisol (B) Testosterone (C) Insulin (D) Progesterone

Water soluble hormones do not cross the cell membrane. They bind to the extracellular receptors which generates second messengers such as Ca 2+, CAMP , IP 3 etc. This further activates the existing enzyme system of the cell and accelerates the biochemical reaction in the cell.
