<h2>GPCRs,RTKs</h2>

Explanation:

G Protein Coupled Receptors(GPCRs) are more common and found in almost all eukaryotes whereas Receptor Tyrosine Kinases(RTKs) are second largest family of receptors that relay signal from cell surface to the interior

  1. G protein coupled receptors(GPCRs) interacts with the ligand activated GPCR and phosphorylates its intracellular domain.This process of phosphorylation can terminate signal or desensitize receptor
  2. Autophosphorylation of receptor can initiate signal in case of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases(RTKs);Autophosphorylation is a feature of RTKs in which receptor dimerization activates intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity by which they phosphorylate its own tyrosine residue on cytosolic phase
  3. Seven transmembrane helices can be seen in case of G protein-coupled receptors(GPCRs);transmembrane protein of it consists of single polypeptide and spans the membrane 7 times
  4. Insulin receptor is a part of Insulin Signalling which comes under RTKs;Insulin receptor always exist in case of dimeric form
  5. Epinephrine receptor is an example of GPCRs;Epinephrine is an endocrine hormones produced in stress condition
  6. Transmembrane protein of GPCR activates G protein,activated G protein binds with effector enzyme and activate it;effector enzyme further can produce or destroy secondary messenger

Softa [21]

Plate tectonic induced changes in the sea level could increase the total percentage of land area upto 40% or decrease it to as low as 17%

<h3>What are Tectonic plates?</h3>

Plate tectonics, whose name derives from the Late Latin tectonicus and the Ancient Greek letter v, which means "pertaining to building," According to the widely accepted scientific idea , the Earth's lithosphere is made up of many major tectonic plates that have been gently shifting for nearly 3.4 billion years

The model is based on the idea of continental drift, which was created in the early 20th century. After seafloor spreading was confirmed in the mid- to late 1960s, plate tectonics became largely accepted by geoscientists.

British scientist who first observed cells under a microscope was _____
Sav [38]

Robert Hooke is the first person to observe cells as microscopic structures.

He was of British descent and, fun fact, he discovered cells by looking at a sliver of cork under a microscope lens (although the 'fun fact' is heavily simplified).
