Within an organism it is critical that signals between cells are very specific.

Biology
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The ligand has only one receptor that it is able to bind to

Explanation:

The shape of the ligand and its corresponding receptor allow there to be specificity. For example, receptors for ligand A would be found on the target immune system cells and not on cardiac muscle cells or skin epithelial cells. Therfore, even though the cardiac muscle cells or the skin epithelial cells would be exposed to ligand A, they would not be able to bind to it and therefore could not react because of the specificity of the receptor of ligand A at that moment

Why do you think the dna is stored cold with the instagene matrix after boiling the samples?
seropon [69]
<span>The DNA is stored cold with the instagene matrix after boiling samples in order to slow bacterial growth. In that way, you will greatly slow down the activity of any remaining enzymes that could harm your DNA. Most likely it is a way of preserving the DNA and to avoid it bacterial contamination.</span>

True or False. When reactions are too slow to meet the needs of the cell, enzymes are missing from cells and cellular reactions.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Organic catalyst that increase the rate of biochemical reactions in the cells of living organism s are called enzymes.The are proteins with active sites which are specific to a particular  substrate, for enzyme-substrate complex and later enzyme product complex to formed.

They  act by lowering the activation energy  in the organic chemical reaction therefore increase the rate at which chemical reactions progress.

Hence when  the reactions are too slow,activation energy are high,because enzymes are not available to catalyze the reaction fixing the active sites with the the substrates.
