Which of the following statements correctly describe(s) the relationship between the classes of hormones and their behavior or f

unction? Select all that apply.The general chemical nature of a hormone can be used to predict: how soluble the hormone is in water. whether the hormone will be able to move through the cell membrane. whether the hormone interacts with receptors on the cell membrane. whether the hormone interacts with receptors inside the cell. whether the hormone will increase or decrease a specific cell function.

The correct answers are:

• How soluble the hormone is in water. Depending on is it hydrophilic or hydrophobic. For example steroid hormones (derived from lipids) are hydrophobic, meaning that are insoluble in water so they must have transport protein for the blood transport.

• whether the hormone will be able to move through the cell membrane. Hormones derived from lipids are able to pass through the membrane because are able to diffuse through the lipid bilayer. Hydrophilic hormones (from amino acids) are unable to diffuse through the lipid bilayer

• whether the hormone interacts with receptors on the cell membrane.  

• whether the hormone interacts with receptors inside the cell

Hormones that diffuse freely through the membrane have internal receptors. Others have cell membrane receptors.

Which biomolecule is structurally important to the cell membrane as it comprises the bilayer?
alukav5142 [94]
Phospholipids. Phospholipids, arranged in a bilayer, make up the basic fabric of the plasma membrane. They are well-suited for this role because they are amphipathic, meaning that they have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions. Chemical structure of a phospholipid, showing the hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tails ..

In what way do retrotransposons generally differ from typical dna transposons?
kipiarov [429]

<span>Basically, retrotransposons is transcribed then reverse transcriptase produces a double-stranded DNA copy of the element which is then inserted into the genome. In addition retrotransposons cont are related to retroviruses that all carry pol and some contain gag. It is a none encode env thus they can be reverse transcribed and inserted into host DNA but are unable to produce viral particles. However a typical DNA transposon transposed through consevative or replicative transposition. Thus these DNA transposons are a group of transposable elements that can move in the DNA of an organism via a single or double-stranded DNA intermediate. They have been found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. </span>
