Biology
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]3 years ago
7 0
The correct answer is d: a target cell's response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways.
The response of a cell to a hormone depends on the cell’s receptor and a signal transduction. When a peptide hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane, a second messenger is activated in the cytoplasm. The second messenger has a role of triggering signal transduction leading to the cellular response. Lots of different signal transduction processes (for example, different intracellular proteins) are used to coordinate the behaviour of target cells.

What would happen if the daughter cells were not identical to the parent cell in mitosis?

Answer:

However, these two processes distribute genetic material among the resulting daughter cells in very different ways. Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. ... Finally, unlike mitosis, meiosis involves two rounds of nuclear division, not just one.

Members of a population may be prone to inherited genetic diseases if
pav-90 [236]

Members of a population may be prone to inherited genetic diseases if inbreeding takes place frequently within the population.

Inbreeding is the production of offspring from the mating or breeding of individuals or organisms that are closely related genetically. By analogy, the term is used in human reproduction, but more commonly refers to the genetic disorders and other consequences that may arise from expression of deleterious or recessive traits resulting from incestuous sexual relationships and consanguinity.
