Answer:

Cell differentiation

Explanation:

Cell differentiation is the process by which living cells "specialize" to perform a specific function within an organism.

After differentiation, differentiated cells can act in isolation - like the gametes and sex cells of smaller organisms, such as bacteria. Or they can be grouped into differentiated tissues, such as bone and muscle tissue. Although differentiated, the cells maintain the same genetic code as the first cell (zygote). The difference lies in the activation and inhibition of specific groups of genes that will determine the function of each cell.

Which of the following describes the role of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in hormone response? A. cAMP receives messages from mRNA to begin
Advocard [28]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Hormones are bigger than the cell pores hence cannot pass through the cell membrane to influence biochemical processes. Therefore, hormones (such as glucagon and insulin) bind onto receptors on the cell membrane, then transmembrane proteins, such as the G-protein, change conformation activating the secondary messengers inside of the cell. Cyclic- AMP is a major secondary messenger  significant in activating protein kinases.

What is the difference between a dominant trait and a recessive trait?
Bas_tet [7]
Dominant- determines the dominant character, more frequently found in the population, produces the complete polypeptide, does not require the presence of a similar gene, more likely to be inherited, more prone to produce diseases

recessive- responsible for the recessive character, expresses the recessive trait, produces an incomplete polypeptide, requires the presence of a similar gene, less likely to be inherited, less prone to produce disease
