Read the following statements that describe the action of steroid hormones. What is the correct order in which they occur?

1) The hormone binds to a receptor and forms a hormone-receptor complex.
2) The hormone passes across the cell membrane into the cell.
3) mRNA moves into the cytoplasm and directs protein synthesis.
4) The hormone-receptor complex enters the nucleus and binds to regions of DNA.
5) Specific genes are transcribed to mRNA.
