Molodets [167]

Answer:

Receptors are highly specific and only have high affinity for those ligands for whom they are specific.

Explanation:

Receptors are proteins that receive a stimulus or bind a ligand and mediate effects via receptor effector system.

Receptors are macromolecules that are highly specific.

The affinity between the ligand and the receptors is determind by the disassociation constant Kd.

The receptors produce maximun effect when an appropriate specific stimulus is present.

Different recptors types are present for different ligands.

For example, muscrinic receptors are specific for acetycholine and adrenergic receptors are specific for adrenaline/nor adrenaline.

It is important to know the specificity so that the body remains in a state of balance.

If glaciers carry a mixture of different clast sizes, why are glacial outwash deposits layered?
mylen [45]
Glacial outwash deposits layered because clasts fall out of the glacier in size progression. Glaciofluvial sediments are stratified deposits of sand and gravel, glacialy derived, but deposited by streams flowing from the glacier. Glaciolacustrine sediments are generally thinly layered, clay and silt-sized clasts carried by streams and deposited in quiet water.
