Answer:

Explanation: They both require the binding of Ligand.

Differences:

Intracellular receptor is located in cytosol. It can be found in the nucleus. It leads to slower responses related to gene transcription. They are steroids. Ligands are lipophilic, small, uncharged; diffuse through membrane and bind to receptor.

Plasma membrane receptor-

The Ligands are hydrophobic and don't have to be small and uncharged; bind only to membrane receptor. Extracellular signaling molecule binds to cell membrane receptor and triggers rapid cellular response (protein hormone)

Climate change is partly the result of an increased concentration of greenhouse gases, especially ____.
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Climate change is partly the result of an increased concentration of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Increased concentration of carbon dioxide, leads to change in temperature because it traps the heat in the Earth's atmosphere. For greenhouse, carbon dioxide is the main gas. The other green house gases are water vapor, carbon dioxide,  methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. Absence of the greenhouse leads to the average temperature of about -18 degree Celsius. But when these gases are present the average temperature is about 15 degree Celsius.
