What occurs when a drug binds to a receptor in the body?

Biology
1 answer:
Mandarinka [93]3 years ago
4 0
When a drug binds to a receptor in the body , the receptor is activated or inactivated. 
Molecules such as hormones, drugs or neurotransmitters that bind to a receptor are called ligands. The binding can be specific and reversible. A ligand may activate or inactivate the receptor; activation may increase or decrease a particular cell function. Each ligand may interact with multiple receptor subtypes.

A pure breeding tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. What will be frequency of dwarf plants in F2?
Temka [501]

Tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. The frequency of dwarf plants in F2 will be 0%.

  • A true breeding pea plant is one that, after self-fertilization, only bears offspring with the same traits.
  • True breeding organisms are those that share the same genes for the desired traits and are genetically comparable.
  • These animals possess homozygous alleles. If the alleles are distinct, only one of the gene's alleles—referred to as the dominant gene—will be expressed.
  • The other allele, referred to as the recessive one, has no effect.

According to the given cross:

                                  TT  X  tt   (parents)

                                 Tt Tt Tt Tt  (offspring) all tall

Hence the percentage of dwarf individuals is 0.

Ordinary cell division produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical. This type of cell division is important for a
Ratling [72]

Answer:

C) production of sperm and eggs

Explanation:

Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.  

Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.  

Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells.  If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.
