Answer:

Explanation:

Protein kinase receptors are simply saying receptors with associated kinases (usually tyrosine kinases).

Protein kinases are enzymes that have the ability to modulate other enzymes (or some other proteins) by adding the phosphate group. This is known as phosphorilation process. As a result of structural change, protein can change its activity (phosphorilation usually increase the activity).

Such receptors are involved in a many processes within an organism that are important for the cellular growth, differentiation, metabolism .

Whether the effect of a neurotransmitter is excitatory or inhibitory depends on.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Whether the effect of a neurotransmitter is excitatory or inhibitory depends on the receptor it binds to.

<h3>What is Neurotransmitter?</h3>

A neurotransmitter may be defined as the chemical substances present within the synaptic vesicles and transmitting the impulse through synapses.  

Examples of excitatory neurotransmitters are glutamate, norepinephrine, epinephrine, etc. Such neurotransmitters promote the electrical impulse and allow the passage of messages.

Examples of inhibitory neurotransmitters are serotonin, glycine, GABA, etc. Such neurotransmitters inhibit the passage of electrical impulses and block information.

Therefore, it is well described above.

2. Can the classification system change? If so, provide an example of a way it has changed in the past. (2 points)
Elis [28]

Yes, classification system is still evolving together with our knowledge.

But, before changing the name (e.g. of a species) it is important to collect and gather a wealth of information in order to support that change. Classification system is still evolving. The reasons for the changes are DNA analyzes. It is the new way for discovering relation between organisms and put them in the right context (classification used to be based on morphological characteristics).

Change in classification can be shown in an example of fungi. In the 90s fungi classification included only phyla Chytridiomycota and Zygomycota. Now theyhave been classified mainly on the basis of characteristics of their sexual reproductive structures. So, there are 7 phyla now: Microsporidia, Chytridiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Glomeromycota, Ascomycota, and Basidiomycota
