Read the given paragraph and select the option that correctly fills the blanks in it.
Hormones produce their effects on target tissues by binding to specific A called hormone receptors located in the target tissues only. Water soluble hormones usually need B receptors that generate C messenger for regulating cellular metabolism. D soluble hormones can pass through cell membrane. The hormone which interact with E receptors mostly regulate gene expression or chromosome function by the interaction of hormone-receptor complex with the genome.
