When substances move across the plasma membrane of a cell, they do so while either going down the concentration, which means from higher concentration to lower concentration, or against the concentration gradient, which means from lower concentration to higher concentration.

Passive transport occurs when movement is down the concentration gradient; whereas, active transport, which involves the use of energy, occurs against the concentration gradient.

What happened to the Continental Army at the Valley Forge encampment?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The particularly severe winter of 1777-1778 proved to be a great trial for the American army, and of the 11,000 soldiers stationed at Valley Forge, hundreds died from disease. However, the suffering troops were held together by loyalty to the Patriot cause and to General Washington, who stayed with his men.

G protein‑coupled receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are two basic receptor types by which cells transduce s
weqwewe [10]
<h2>GPCRs and RTKs</h2>

Explanation:

1) Phosphorylation of receptor can terminate signal or desensitize receptor: GPCRs because when signal persists a protein kinase receptor is activated,this further catalyse the phosphorylation of several serine residue at cytosolic phase of 7 transmembrane

Phosphorylated transmembrane recognized by arrestin protein blocks interaction between trimeric G protein and receptor thus blocks signal transduction

2) Autophosphorylation of receptor can initiate signal: RTKs because receptor dimerization activates intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity by which they phosphorylate its own tyrosine residue on cytosolic phase

3) Structure contains seven transmembrane helices: GPCRs because it consists of single polypeptide and spans the membrane 7 times hence called 7 transmembrane;it recognizes external signal and activates trimeric G protein

4) Ligand binding induces conformational change in receptor: RTKs because normally RTK exist in monomeric form in absence of any ligand molecule but when any ligand molecule binds receptor starts to dimerize

5) Receptor activation causes phosphorylation of its cytosolic subunits: RTKs because when receptor gets activates the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity by which they phosphorylate its cytosolic subunits

6) An example is the insulin receptor: Insulin receptor is present on plasma membrane and belongs to RTK family and always exist in dimeric form

7) Transports some ligands through the membrane: Neither GPCR nor RTK;ligand gets transported through the membrane through ligand gated channel

8) An example is the epinephrine receptor: Epinephrine is an endocrine  hormone produced by adrenal glands in stress condition and prepare body for fight and flight;Epinephrine uses GPCR signalling pathway by four different types of membrane receptors in different tissues

9) Activate heterotrimeric G proteins directly: Transmembrane protein of GPCR recognizes the external signal and activates G protein,activated G protein binds with effector enzyme and activate it which further produce or destroy secondary messenger that carry message from cell surface to cell interior

After you have established a research question, which of the following should you do first?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

After you have established a research question, which of the following should you do first?

put your research question into a null and alternative hypothesis

Explanation:

It expedient that after research question has been established, one needs to make a null hypothesis and alternate it, this gives a clue of what the researcher intends to find or problem to be solved.
