Biology
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The statement is false.

Explanation:

Epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is a hormone and a neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal glands, it helps to regulate cellular energy metabolism and increases the heart rate.

Epinephrine adheres to certain receptors that are exposed on the surface of a large number of body cells. This receptor, called beta-adrenergic, is a receptor that is embedded in the plasma membranes of these cells. Adrenaline does not penetrate the cell, instead, joining for a short period of time to its receptor, induces it to release biochemical signals to the cytoplasm of cells. This steric change, affects the configuration of the cytoplasmic domain of the protein, this is the "link" of the receptor that protrudes in the cytoplasm.

Bones kept in hydrochloric acid becomes soft why?
DanielleElmas [232]

Bones are made up of Calcium Phosphate given by the chemical formula, Ca_{3}(PO_4)_2. When bones are kept in Hydrochloric acid, given by the chemical formula, HCl, they become soft because the calcium compound present in the bones changes its form. The following double displacement reaction takes place when the bones are kept in HCl,

Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2} + HCl ---> CaCl_{2} + H_{3}PO_{4}

Calcium chloride is water soluble, and gets washed away. This makes the bone thin and soft.
