How is signaling induced by a protein hormone different from

How is signaling induced by a protein hormone different from the signaling induced by a steroid hormone? Signaling induced by steroid hormones. causes a much faster cellular response than signaling induced by protein hormones. Steroid hormones bind and activate cell surface receptors and protein hormones bind and activate cytoplasmic receptors. Signaling induced by steroid hormones ultimately changes which proteins are present in the cell, while signaling induced by protein hormones ultimately changes protein function. All of these answers are correct.
