Some steroid hormones do not require a membrane receptor because?
they are lipid soluble and pass through the bilayer
What secretes glucocorticoids and mineralocoricoids?
Glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids are secreted by the adrenal cortex of the adrenal glands in response to signals from the pituitary gland via the hormone adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Glucocorticoids help regulate metabolism and immune response, while mineralocorticoids are involved in regulating electrolyte balance and blood pressure.

Why some steroid hormones do not require a membrane receptor?
Some steroid hormones are able to pass directly through cell membranes due to their lipid-soluble nature. Once inside the cell, they bind to intracellular receptors located in the cytoplasm or nucleus. This binding initiates a cascade of cellular responses, ultimately regulating gene expression and affecting various cellular functions.
