Answer:
Option D When activated, Bax and Bak form oligomers in the outer membrane of mitochondria, leading to the release of cytochrome c.
Explanation:
The proapoptotic genes are involved in the process of apoptosis. The antiapoptotic gene prevents apoptosis that is cell death. The proapoptotic genes are bax, bak, bad and bid. The bcl family genes are antiapoptotic genes. The process involved activation of apoptosis inside the cell is called intrinsic pathway of apoptosis.
The activation proapoptotic genes, Bax and Bak form oligomers in the mitochondria outer membrane. These pores in the mitochondrial membrane allows the release of cytochrome-c that further attaches with Apaf-1. This leads to activation of caspase 9 that further activates caspase 3, thus inducing apoptosis.
Answer:
The correct answer is D. involves proteins in plasma membranes.
Explanation:
Animal cells have several types of proteins embedded in their cell membrane. These proteins play an important role in the transport of molecules, cell recognition, and cell communication.
Recognition proteins are a type of glycoproteins present in the plasma membrane that allow one cell of the body to recognize the other body cells by making contact with recognition proteins of other cells. Receptors proteins allow cell-cell communication by receiving extracellular proteins.
These proteins are important for proper growth and development of the cell. Therefore the correct answer is D. involves proteins in plasma membranes.
Answer: D. Epinephrine
Explanation:
During perceived danger the fight-or-flight response includes faster heart beat, quickened breath, tense muscles and thought speed up. This co-ordinated set if physiological changes is triggered by two hormones of the adrenal gland, epinephrine and norepinephrine.
The major activities of these hormones is to increase the amount of chemical energy available for immediate use, increase the heart rate and stroke volume and dilate the bronchioles in the lungs, action the raise the rate of oxygen delivery to the cell.
Answer is epinephrine
Answer:
B
Explanation:
This number that is put in a compound is called a subscript. It is put in front of the symbol of the element being represented. An example is CO₂ which means there are one (1) carbon and two (2) oxygen atoms in the compound.
Gonads are sex organs that produce gametes. Male gonads are the testes, which produce sperm and male sex hormones. Female gonads are the ovaries, which produce eggs (ova) and female sex hormones.
