Steroid hormones pass through the cell membrane and bind to a specific steroid hormone receptor protein. The combined steroid and receptor protein then bind to a specifiâ¦c sequence of bases in the DNA molecule. This sequence of bases is part of the promotor of a gene.   Binding of the steroid - receptor complex either activates (switches on) or represses (switches off) the gene which is controlled by that promotor.
A port replicator is an attachment for a notebook computer that allows a number of devices such as a printer, large monitor, and keyboard to be simultaneously connected.
USB implements connections to storage devices using a set of standards called the USB mass storage device class (MSC or UMS). This was at first intended for traditional magnetic and optical drives and has been extended to support flash drives.
