Cytosine guanine thymine and adenine are referred to as phosphates. True or False

Biology
1 answer:
Harman [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Cytosine, guanine, thymine, and adenine are collectively referred to as nitrogenous bases. These are not phosphates. The cytosine, guanine, thymine, and adenine are the four different types of nitrogenous bases. These nitrogenous bases are present in the deoxyribonucleotides. Cytosine and thymine are smaller in structure and have single ring structures. These are collectively called pyrimidines. On the other hand, adenine and guanine are the larger nitrogenous bases each with double ring structures. They are collectively called purines

A neurotransmitter may have an excitatory or an inhibitory effect on the postsynaptic cell, depending on __________.
Otrada [13]

A neurotransmitter can have an excitatory or inhibitory effect on the postsynaptic cell, depending on <u>which of its </u><u>receptor(s</u><u>) are present on the </u><u>postsynaptic</u><u> (target) cell.</u>

<h3>How do excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters act?</h3>

Sometimes neurotransmitters can bind to receptors and cause an electrical signal to be transmitted through the cell (excitatory). In other cases, the neurotransmitter can prevent the signal from continuing, preventing the message from being carried (inhibitory).

With this information, we can conclude that a neurotransmitter is a signaling molecule secreted by a neuron to affect another cell across a synapse.

Which of the following BEST describes the kinetochore? the array of vesicles that will form between two dividingnuclei and give
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a structure composed of several proteins that associate with the centromere region of a chromosome and that can bind to spindle microtubules

Explanation:

Kinetochores have  vvery important role in the cell division-mitosis.

During the metaphase of mitosis, spindle fibers attach to kinetochores. Some of the microtubules bind to kinetochore (kinetochore microtubules) while other don’t: they connect with the microtubules from the opposite pole, stabilizing the spindle.

During the anaphase, kinetochore microtubules pull chromosomes toward poles, helping the sister chromatids separate from each other.
