Discuss how protein kinases function to produce signal amplification in a cell

Biology
1 answer:
Alex_Xolod [135]3 years ago
4 0
A signal reaches a cell mostly in the form of a signalling molecule binding to a receptor on the cell surface. This binding activates a chain of events that amplifies the signal and transfers it inside the cell. Protein kinases phosphorylate proteins and cause their activation or deactivation, or in general modify their activity. When a signalling molecule binds to a receptor, a cascade is activated and the second messengers, such as cAMP, are synthesized. cAMP molecules activate the protein kinases, which phosphorylate specific proteins and activate them.

In three to five sentences, describe the advantages and disadvantages of these maps in modeling mitosis.
Nina [5.8K]

Modelling refers to using a diagrammatic representation to present a particular event or biological activity.

The two maps shown are very good for representing/modelling mitosis.

Advantages

  • They clearly lists the various steps involved in mitosis and as well included the process of cell division starting from the interphase stage (for the second diagram).
  • The M phase was also clearly explained in the first diagram.

Disadvantages

  • The first pictorial diagram had to labelling to depict the name of each particular phase and makes understanding difficult.
  • The second diagram fails to show pictorial representation of what could have exactly happened in each stage in the process of cell division.
