A water-soluble hormone approaches its target cell. Which of the following happens first?

1 answer:

3 0

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice "The hormone's signal is transduced through the cytoplasm of the target cell."


Water-soluble hormones include glycoproteins, catecholamines, and peptide hormones composed of polypeptides, e.g. thyroid-stimulating hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone and insulin. These molecules are not lipid-soluble and therefore cannot diffuse through cell membranes.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Punnett Squares are used by geneticists to determine the likely genotypes of the offspring of two parents.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

That's correct - it's a square where on one axis, the paternal allele (allele = one of the possible forms of the same gene), and on another the maternal allele is listed. Often, it's also indicated whether an allele is recessive or dominant.

Then, in the table that results, all the possible "combinations" of allele between the paternal and maternal party are created. If you count how often a certain combination appears, it indicates the likelihood of that combination.
See the picture (though it is directly from Wikipedia, please note). The likelihood of BB is 25%, of Bb is 50%, and of bb 25%.

arsen [322]

Answer:

2.048 x 10^6 No. Of Copies

Explanation:

The DNA replication in a PCR works exponentially by using the 2^n where n represents the number of cycles.

For one molecule of DNA = 2^11 = 2048 No. Of Copies

For 1000 Molecules of DNA = 1000 x 2048 = 2.048 x 10^6 No. Of Copies
