Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since estrogen is lipid soluble and can easily cross membranes, its receptors would also need to be inside the cell in order to interact with it. This makes option B the correct answer. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they describe receptors that are typically found on the cell surface, whereas estrogen receptors are found inside the cell. Option E is also incorrect, because if the receptors were also lipid soluble, they would not necessarily need to be inside the cell to interact with estrogen.
