When a peptide hormone reaches its target cell, which event happens next?

1 answer:

6 0

They are unable to pass through the plasma membrane and have different methods of action. They attach to their receptors in the target cell surface and influence activity within the cell through cytoplasmic intermediates called second messengers. 

The two most important messengers are cAMP and inositol triphosphate. 

Cyclic AMP: ATP is converted into cAMP after a series of reactions on the plasma membrane following the attachment of the hormone to the membrane. cAMP relays the signal from the membrane to the metabolic machinery of the cytoplasm. 

Inositol Triphosphate: Involves the use of Ca+2 that regulates cellular protein activity.

Angiosperms are more advanced than gymnosperms because gymnosperms lack which structure found in angiosperms?

vlada-n [284]

Gymnosperms lack fruits so angiosperms are more advanced than them.

Compared to gymnosperms, flowering plants may thrive in a wider range of settings. Compared to gymnosperms, flowering plants mature more quickly and generate more seeds. Additionally, angiosperms have more complex and specialized woody tissues. Gymnosperms lack flowers and fruits and have unenclosed or coverless seeds on the surface of scales or leaves, in contrast to angiosperms, generally known as flowering plants, which have seeds that are contained within an ovary (typically a fruit).

Which condition is a cause of impotency in men

daser333 [38]

Atherosclerosis is a common cause, because there is a lack of blood flow in the person's body, and this can cause a male to be impotent.

Diabetes is also a common cause because once again it causes less blood flow.

In a younger man, a cause could be anxiety. This is because nervousness and being anxious can lessen blood flow.

If you have choices, I suggest choosing one that has to do with less blood flow happening, which that is the main cause.

I hope that this could possibly help you with your studies, and have an amazing day. If you have any more questions, send me a pm.

Would would be the possible gamete combinations?

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1/4 WR; 1/4 wr; 1/4 wR; 1/4 Wr

Explanation:

The principle of independent assortment indicates how different genes independently separate from one another when gametic (reproductive) cells develop. When a cell divides by meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, thereby different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. In consequence, each gamete has a unique combination of chromosomes. In this case, the two genes are on different homologous chromosomes, thereby gene variants (alleles) will be randomly distributed to daughter cells during meiosis (anaphase I) and thus the expected proportion of gamete genotypes will be 1/4 WR, 1/4 wr, 1/4 wR, 1/4 Wr.
