Answer:

A) Ciprofloxacin (Cipro)

Explanation:

Ciprofloxacin is a potent antibiotic, which is part of the <u>fluorquinolone</u> class. This class has a broad spectrum of activity against various pathogenic micro-organisms that can incapacitate or kill humans and animals.

It is a prime antibiotic for the therapy of complicated urinary tract infections and bacterial diarrhea.

Ciprofloxacin is also an alternative agent for the treatment of various sexually transmitted diseases, as well as osteomyelitis and some cases of wounds.

Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride is an important weapon against bioterrorism for the treatment of the respiratory tract, being the only drug approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for treatment after exposure to inhaled anthrax.

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Answer is D - cAMP.

Explanation:

cAMP is a small molecule that functions as an intracellular signaling molecule - a second messenger. The first messenger would be the thing that activated the GPCR (e.g. a hormone). The GPCR is a signal transducer (converts extracellular signal to intracellular signal). Once activated, the GPCR activates  adenylate cyclase which can be called a signal effector - it is an enzyme that produces cAMP.
