More polymer will form if the concentration of free actin monomers is higher than the Cc at both the plus and minus ends.

Less polymer will form if the concentration of free actin monomers is lower than the Cc at both the plus and minus ends.

Actin polymerization encourages FAK and Src to activate small G proteins by signalling to GEFs and GTPases (e.g., Rho and Rac). The actomyosin network is then forced to develop as a result of G proteins' induction of cytoskeleton-regulating proteins.

What stops cells from forming actin polymers?

Actin monomer is sequestered by monomer-binding proteins, reducing its availability for polymerization. As a result, actin does not polymerize when monomer-binding proteins are present in stoichiometric levels.

Q. If a cell increases the activity of its actin severing proteins, will it lead in the short term to MORE or LESS actin polymer mass? Chose the most accurate answer.

Increased severing activity will result in LESS polymer under any conditions.

Increased severing activity will result in NO CHANGE in the total amount of polymer under any conditions. It simply results in a larger number of smaller filaments.

Increased severing activity will result in MORE polymer under any conditions.

If the concentration of free actin monomers is below the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then MORE polymer will result. If the concentration of free actin monomers is above the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then LESS polymer will result.

If the concentration of free actin monomers is above the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then MORE polymer will result. If the concentration of free actin monomers is below the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then LESS polymer will result.

Why would a third-degree burn be less painful than a first- or second-degree burn involving the same body area?
Irina18 [472]
A third-degree burn would be less painful than a first- or second-degree burn involving the same body area because of the destruction of underlying pain receptors.
Nerve endings are destroyed in third-degree burns, which means that a person can no longer feel pain in that particular spot on the body. Third-degree burns are the most severe ones and cannot be treated easily - usually skin grafting or synthetic skin has to be used to replace the burnt skin.
