The accurate statements to the signal transduction pathways are as follows:
1. A receptor changes conformation upon attachment, conducting a signal across the cell membrane.
2. A second messenger may carry a signal from the cell membrane to an organelle.
3. Signal transduction cascades, often involving protein kinases, amplify a signal intracellularly.
4. A receptor may pass on a signal by associating with another protein or by functioning as an enzyme.
5. A ligand, like hormone, combines with a specific cell surface receptor on a target cell.
6. Phosphatase eradicate phosphoryl groups from polypeptides, monitoring the response of the cell.
Answer:
hope it helps you....
Explanation:
Muscle cells contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another, producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. Muscles function to produce force and motion.
Answer is A.
This is an example Mendel’s dihybrid cross.The law of independent assortment of independent assortment. When two individuals heterozygous for both traits (tail color and eyelash length) having genotype (PpLl) are crossed, four types of individuals are produced. The probability of phenotype combinations of offspring is the ratio 9:3:3:1.
9 - polka-dot tails and long eyelashes
3 - polka-dot tails and short eyelashes
3 - solid tails and long eyelashes
1- solid tail and short eyelash
Answer:
The Grants's research shows that variation within species increases the likelihood of the species' adapting to and surviving the environmental change.
Explanation:
The beaks of individual birds can change depending on what food is available.
Over time, individuals can evolve to better fit the environment by changing heritable traits.
Beak depth and length must affect survival and/or reproduction of birds.
Beak depth and length must be heritable.
Beak depth and length must show variation among individuals of a single species.
Answer:
B. Offering advice about how best to perform a standard procedure.
Explanation:
Helping others can be in different ways, be it helping out or by giving encouraging words or advice. But in all aspects of help, there is always a positive outcome if help is given in the right way and at the right time. And it is also how one person lifts another.
A scientist can help a colleague out by offering advice and telling the person how to best perform a standard procedure. This will help the colleague do better in the experiment and also help ensure that the right things are done and the efforts are successful. The other options are all negative in their 'approach' which will only hinder the colleague in his/her works.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
