it is steroid hormone

it will bind directly to DNA

it is able to pass through cell membranes

it will not enter the nucleus

Verified Answer :

So, this hormone is a non-steroid hormone.  Steroid hormones are fat soluble and can pass directly into the cell to affect the nucleus.

Non-steroid hormones bind to the receptor and trigger a chemical change within the cell without ever entering the cell, or the nucleus.

The answer is: It will not enter the nucleus
