An amino acid is synthesized by the prokaryote, E. coli. The genes for the enzymes are responsible for synthesizing this amino a

cid are encoded in an operon. The operon is regulated by a reperssor. When the amino acid binds to the repressor, the repressor changes shape so it can bind to the operator. Which of the following statements is true?
A. When levels of the amino acid are high, it binds to the repressor, allowing synthesis of this amino acid to proceed.
B. When levels of the amino acid are low, it binds to the repressor, allowing synthesis of this amino to proceed.

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.
