Answer:

a. Reception: This stage is when the signal molecule binds to the receptor

b. Signal Transduction: This stage occurs where the chemical signal results in a series of enzyme activations

c. Signal Response: This is the stage that occurs as a result of cellular response

The three types of receptors are as follows:

Cell surface receptors/Ion channel-linked receptors: These channels open in response to the binding of a ligand to form a channel, it has a hydrophilic (water-loving) channel through the middle of it which allow a channel for the ions to cross the membrane without having to touch the hydrophobic core of the phospholipid bilayer.

G-protein-linked receptors: A family of cell surface receptors that share a common structure and method of signaling and are very diverse and bind to many different types of ligands, with seven different protein segments that cross the membrane, and they transmit signals inside the cell through a type of protein called a G protein

When its ligand is not present, the receptor waits at the plasma membrane in an inactive state and the inactive receptor is already docked to its signaling target which is a G-protein  

Enzyme-linked receptors: These are cell-surface receptors with intracellular domains that are associated with an enzyme and the domain is usually an enzyme that can catalyze a reaction. Other enzyme-linked receptors have an intracellular domain that interacts with the actual enzyme

Answer:

a.There are three signaling pathway

1- Reception in which molecule binds to receptor

2- Signal transduction in which activation of intracellular pathway and enzyme occur.

3- Cellular response in which specific response of cell occur according to receptor and ligand.

b. Three types of receptors are

1- autocrine

2- paracrine

3- endocrine.

Explanation:

autocrine receptors are signaling pathway in which cell releases its molecule and bind to its own cell receptor example cancer cells while paracrine in which ligand binds to other nearby cell receptor and it is used during development  and in endocrine cell target distinct cell and travel through blood stream like hormones functioning.

What component of the circulatory system is at the tissue level? a. blood b. white blood cell c. heart d. hemoglobin
nata0808 [166]

Answer;

A. Blood

Explanation;

The main organs of the Circulatory system are the heart, the brain, the lungs. There are other key things like arteries, veins, and capillaries but they are not organs.

The major tissues in the circulatory system are the epithelial, muscle, nervous, and connective tissues.

Blood is the main connective tissue in the circulatory system, but it's a liquid connective tissue. Blood tissue is in the same family as bone and cartilage, but instead it has a liquid medium that holds it together.

Alex

Answer:

a) Yes

b) Yes

c) Yes

d) Yes

Explanation:

a. In the exons?

Yes mutant site will be expected. It will transcript-ed as well and it can be a polypeptide depending on the mutation type.

b. In the intron?

Yes mutant site will be expected. It will be transcript-ed as well and it cannot be a  polypeptide  

c. In the promoter?

Yes mutant site will be expected. It will not be transcript-ed and it cannot be a  polypeptide

d. In the intron-exon boundary?

Yes mutant site will be expected. It will be transcript-ed and it cannot be a  polypeptide

Quantitative analytic methods are needed to determine _____.
Darya [45]
Quantitative analytic methods refer to methods used in analytical chemistry in order to determine the concentration or the moles of a certain substance in solutions. This includes finiding correct units. The most appropriate answer is a quantitative variable and this is the first choice; Quantitative analytic methods can help you determine or estimate the amount of poison in the blood (solvent).
