<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

How do cricket communicate temperature and reactions and body parts allow them to do this?
aleksley [76]

Answer:

as temperature rises, mussles in a crickets body contract more, causing it to chirp more often

Explanation:Crickets, like all living things, have many chemical reactions going on inside their bodies, such as reactions that allow muscles to contract to produce chirping. Crickets, like all insects, are cold-blooded and take on the temperature of their surroundings. This affects how quickly these chemical muscle reactions can occur. Specifically, a formula called the Arrhenius equation describes the activation, or threshold, energy required to make these reactions occur. As the temperature rises, it becomes easier to reach a certain activation energy, thereby allowing chemical reactions, such as the ones that allow a cricket to chirp, to occur more rapidly.

How to solve these questions
malfutka [58]

Answer:

(i) An allele is a variant of a gene, can either be short or tall.

Dominant = the tall allele that "trumps" the short allele. if a dominant and recessive allele is present (heterozygous) then the dominant phenotype will be shown.

(ii) David's eyes are Brown

(iii) Sarah's eyes are blue

(iv) David - B, b

Sarah - b, b

(v) Possible genotypes include Bb and bb. These give the phenotypes of brown eyes or blue eyes.

(vi) The chance for blue eyes is 50% (or 1:1 ratio)
