When cells communicate by the signaling process, one cell produces a _________________BLANK that must be received by the _______
velikii [3]

Answer:

1. Signaling molecule

2. Signaling receptors

Explanation:

Hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitters, etc. serve the function of signaling molecules for cells. These molecules are released by one cell and bind to the receptors present on/in the target cells to elicit the desired response. Thereby, the signaling molecules serve in cell-cell communication.

For example, insulin hormone synthesized and released from beta cells of pancreas binds to its cell surface receptors present on the surfaces of liver cells and muscle cells to stimulate the uptake of the glucose from the blood.  

Likewise, neurotransmitters released from the presynaptic neuron bind to receptors present on the membrane of postsynaptic neuron and serve to carry the nerve impulse to the postsynaptic neuron.

How do the nitrogen bases pairs join in DNA?
Korolek [52]
There are 4 nitrogenous bases in DNA. Adenine pairs with thymine, and Guanine pairs with cytosine. A Dna Nucleotide consists of a 5 carbon sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. These bases are paired up by weak hydrogen bonds, so when they have have to replicate, the enzyme helicase can easily unzip the Dna. <span />

Answer:

c. mosses

Explanation:

Primary succession occurs in places that have never been occupied by a community. Simple species are established first, as they help enrich the soil, allowing other species to become established. The first organisms to appear in areas of primary succession are often pioneer species such as mosses or lichens.

Hope this helps. :)

A high development of the agonist-antagonist function is essential to the development of dynamic balance.
dlinn [17]

The correct answer is a. True.

High development of the agonist-antagonist function is important for the development of skilled and coordinated movement as the antagonists control speed, the force and range of the agonist action. This holds true for the main muscles that are involved and all the stabilizers of activated joints. The stabilizer muscle holds the non-moving parts of the joints at correct place so as to allow the movement of the muscle at the other end. There should be a proper balance between these two opposing muscles. A balanced well aligned body can proportionally develop the agonists on one side of the joint with antagonists on other side of the joint.
