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.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The answer is b) increased production of heat-shock proteins

Explanation:

High temperatures release a cascade of signals that drive the expression of some genes and the synthesis of so-called stress proteins, whose function is to stabilize the structure of proteins and enzymes and are involved in the protection of the photosynthetic system and stabilization of the membranes. Plants produce antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes to reduce the damage caused by reactive oxygen species, since the production of these substances is caused by heat stress.
