Answer:

Ligand-receptor interaction is the first interaction that triggers cell signalling.

Explanation:

Ligands are the hormones, drugs or neurotransmitters that specifically bind with receptors present in cell surface to initiate cell signalling. Ligand binding to the receptor is reversible. Binding of the ligand to the receptor can activate or inactivate receptor. Activation may lead to cell signalling pathways. Inside cells, there are secondary molecules which on activation starts a cascade of reactions. which in-turn regulate the function of the ligand molecule.

Best Choice:

Ligand-receptor interaction is the first interaction that triggers cell signalling.

Answer:

Explanation :At first, the activated receptor relates with G proteins molecules in the cell.

before the ultimate physiological effect of the ligand on the cell's behavior is produced Therefore, the cellular signaling starts as soon as the first messenger (the ligand) binds to its receptor.

Catabolic processes involve degradation of complex molecules into simpler molecules with the net release of?
Scrat [10]

Complex molecules are broken down into smaller molecules during catabolic processes, which results in a net release of chemical energy.

Complex molecules are broken down into simpler ones through catabolic processes, which often result in energy release. In catabolic processes, energy held in the bonds of complex substances, such as glucose and lipids, is released.

There are two main branches of metabolism: the catabolic (or energy-producing) branch and the anabolic (or energy-using) branch. Catabolism is the destructive branch, which produces energy. Larger, more complex molecules are broken down into smaller, simpler molecules in catabolic processes, which release energy in the process.
