Answer:

The correct answer is C. paracrine signaling.

Explanation:

Intercellular signaling involves the transmission of the sending cell to the receptor cells. There are some basic chemical signals mechanisms between cells: Synaptic, Paracrine, Aotucrine, Endocrine, and by direct contact between cells.

In <u>paracrine signaling</u>, cells that are close to each other communicate by the release of chemical substances that can diffuse in the intercellular space. They produce changes in the target cells by altering their behavior or their differentiation. These are short distances communications that allow cells to coordinate their activities and function in a local area with their neighbors. These paracrine signals are very important in many aspects but especially during development, when a group of cells "tells" or "indicate" to another group of cells in their vecinity which identity to adopt.

Why is a person with type AB blood able to receive a blood transfusion from a donor with any of the major blood types (A, B, AB,
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

ABO blood grouping system is based on presence or absence of three types of antigen on red blood cells. A and B blood group have A and B antigens respectively. AB blood group has both A and B antigens. O blood group does not have any antigen.

A body with particular blood type will consider other blood group foreign ( because it has different antigen ) and produce antibodies against it. A person with blood type A can not be given B type blood because the antibodies in his body will destroy RBCs with B antigen which may even prove fatal.

AB blood type person can receive blood from both A and B blood groups because he has antigens for both of them so it will produce antibodies for neither of them. He can also receive O type blood because O blood does not have any antigen so it can be given to any person without incompatibility reaction.  

However, AB individual can only donate blood to AB individual because his blood cells have both A and B antigens. So, he can only donate blood to an individual who does not produce antibodies for both A and B blood groups and that would only be another AB blood type individual.

If the researchers replaced the bacterial proton pump with a proton pump that was activated only by atp, what result would you p
AnnyKZ [126]

If the researchers replaced the bacterial proton pump with a proton pump that was activated only by atp then less ATP would be produced when the light is on because no proton gradient would be available to produce ATP.

<h3>What is proton gradient ?</h3>

Two quinol (4H+4e) oxidations at the Qo site result in the formation of one quinol (2H+2e) at the Qi site, creating a proton gradient (in total six protons are translocated: two protons reduce quinone to quinol and four protons are released from two ubiquinol molecules).

For the ETC to continue functioning, the energy trapped in the electrochemical gradient of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane must also be released in some manner. ATP is created using the energy in the proton electrochemical gradient.

Chemiosmotic coupling is the process by which ATP synthesis is coupled to the electrochemical gradient of H+ across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Peter Mitchell, who in 1961 made the initial suggestion, was given the Nobel Prize for his efforts in 1978.
