By the effect it has on a living thing

Answer:

Toxicity can be measured by the effect the substance has on an organism, a tissue or a cell. We know that individuals will respond differently to the same dose of a substance because of a number of factors including their gender, age and body weight. Therefore a population-level measure of toxicity is often used

LiRa [457]
The incorrect among the choices is "<span>direct signaling involves the activation of g proteins"

This is incorrect because direct signaling does not involve the activation of g proteins rather it involves the activation of ion channels resulting to either an excitation reaction (depolarization of the membrane) or an inhibition reaction (hyperpolarization of the membrane); and this will ultimately affect the action of the organ the nerve is innervating.</span>

What two air pollutants are associated with the formation of acid rain?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

If the circulatory system failed what would happen to the heart rate?
Gelneren [198K]
The heart rate would decrease because there is less oxygen being supplied to the cells for cellular respiration, and also your muscles won't get the blood it needs. Blood also contains oxygen and glucose which cells need to convert food to energy and to survive, so if the cells don't get blood they will die which will eventually kill the organism

An individual has a genetic disorder in which their cell is not forming the correct protein structure for the cell membrane to a
Andru [333]

Answer:

The type of regulation of gene expression that would have the greatest chance of success is Posttranslational control (E).

Explanation:

The defect is found on the structure of the protein, this means that the process of formation of the protein and the codons responsible for each amino acid in the protein is in correct order, this set the transcriptional and translational process aside as being correct.

Therefore, the problem lies in the formation of secondary or tertiary structure of the protein which requires a good number of proteins also, wherein lies tha main problem in the cell membrane protein. Thus the regulation of the posttranslational process and correction of the proteins needed at this stage will give the best chance of success.
