Viral infections are common in babies and children and often cause a minor rash of the skin. These rashes are usually harmless and will go away on their own. Different viruses can cause different rashes, and sometimes different viruses can cause rashes that look the same.
receptors for both lipid-soluble and lipid-insoluble hormones are found within the cell and usually within the nucleus. receptors for lipid-soluble hormones are on or in the cell membrane, whereas receptors for lipid-insoluble hormones are inside the cell.
hormones are classified as amino based (most hormones are amino based) and steroids. Describe the two major mechanisms by which hormones bring about their effects on their target tissues depending upon the chemical nature of the hormone. Lipid-soluble hormones (steroid hormones and hormones of the thyroid gland) diffuse through the cell membranes of target cells. The lipid-soluble hormone then binds to a receptor protein that, in turn, activates a DNA segment that turns on specific genes-----.
