The given figure shows the mechanism of action of FSH on its target cells.
I:
FSH is hydrophilic and hence cannot enter the cell and therefore acts via a second messenger.
II:
The second messenger will cause physiological responses after binding to a receptor present in the nucleus of the cells and then influencing the level of gene expression in the target cell.
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
