Phosphatases are a family of enzymes that remove phosphate groups from specific proteins; these phosphate groups had been added

to the proteins by protein kinases. Vanadate is an inhibitor of phosphatases in eukaryotic cells. What effect would vanadate have on the response of cells to signals received by receptor kinases?\

Answer:

Kinases would stop working too.

Explanation:

Cells work constantly to maintain homeostasis or equilibrium within themselves. One of the mechanisms used for this purpose is feedback. As mentioned in the question, kinases put phosphates on proteins, and then, phosphatases take them off. Therefore, for phosphatases to work, kinases must be working at the same pace. By inhibiting the phosphatases the number of phosphate-proteins will be too high. This can be perceived by the kinases and they will automatically stop working since there's an excess of product. That process is called feedback.

goldenfox [79]
The unknown type of corn had to be yellow.

There were offspring that were red and yellow.

The red corn only has recessive alleles (r and r) so, the yellow alleles( R) didn't came from this type.  They came from a yellow type corn.

And since the offspring were NOT all yellow (the dominant color) we know that the yellow corn was heterozygous for the color trait (Rr).

50% red (rr)
50% yellow (Rr)

Penetration of the egg' zona pellucida by the sperm cell is a process driven by hydrolytic enzymes.  
<span>
The critical step in fertilization is binding between sperm receptors and glycoproteins on the zona pellucida. This is the trigger for the acrosome reaction which includes an influx of CA and a rise in pH and cAMP levels within the sperm head. As a result, the plasma membrane of the sperm fuses with the outer acrosomal membrane and the exocytosis of the acrosomal<span> vesicle occurs. Components of the acrosome, like hydrolytic enzymes, are released and they degrade the <span>zona pellucida allowing</span> the sperm to move </span>inside.</span>

ahrayia [7]
It seems that you have missed the given options for this question, but anyway here is the answer. Since an amoeba is a unicellular organism that doesn't have a stomach, its f<span>ood storage and digestion take place inside a food vacuole in the cytoplasm of amoeba. Once digested, it reaches each cell organelle. Hope this answer helps.</span>
