Answer:
The movement of proteins and enzymes within a cell is facilitated by intracellular receptors.
Explanation:
Proteins and enzymes (which also are proteins) move inside the cell through intracellular receptors. These receptors are proteins capable of binding other molecules such as proteins and hormones in order to transport them to different cellular locations. Thus, intracellular receptors are key players in signaling pathways that trigger signaling events to regulate a particular function, for example, activating gene expression by transporting proteins to the nucleus.
Nucleic acid is the answer for this problem
Answer:
I) Sexual reproduction
II) Mutation
Explanation:
Variations refer to the difference observed within organisms of the same species. Variation are introduced into a population by:
- new genetic combinations that occur during sexual reproduction (i.e during meiosis)
- mutations, spontaneous changes that occur in genes and chromosomes.
When looking at a Neuromuscular Junction (NMJ), we know that neurotransmitters (NT) are released from the presynaptic cell and they then bind to the receptors that are located on the postsynaptic cell - this causes the effect of the NT being released.
So we are told that NT are still being released, however they are not having an effect. This would mean that they are probably being blocked by something - in this case, it seems that the neurotoxin is the culprit in the blocking of these receptors.
Therefore, if the NT cannot bind to the receptors on the postsynaptic cell, they are not going to have any effect, no matter how much NT is being released.
So the answer in this case is: The neurotoxin is most likely C) Blocking the receptors on the postsynaptic cell.
