nt of cortisol. The action of cortisol, in turn, can result in a high final concentration of glycogen in the liver. This is an example of:a. hormone signal denaturation
b. hormone signal amplification
c. hormone signal accumulation

Answer:

The correct answer is- hormone signal amplification

Explanation:

The signals that are received by the cell can be amplified in the cell which results in the production of more than one molecule of the product. There is a signal pathway in every cell and the longer the signal pathway the more amplification chances are there.

For example, one membrane receptor is able to produce 10 secondary messengers and each secondary messenger generates 10 mRNA transcript so here the signal amplified by 1000 folds.

So in this question, it is seen that a small amount of releasing factor causing the release of a much greater amount of cortisol which shows the example of hormone signal amplification.

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Myelination

Explanation:

Myelin is a fatty substance composed of lipids which surrounds the axons of the nerve cells in the central nervous system. The myelin is formed by the oligodendrocytes in CNS and Schwann cells in PNS.

The plasma membrane of the oligodendrocytes containing the myelin covers the axons of the neurons in spiral fashion thus proving a sheath around through the process called "myelination".

This myelin sheath protects the neurons from the external environment as well as insulates the neuron which increases the efficiency of the impulse.

Thus, Myelination is the correct answer.
