increasing intracellular cAMP leads to smooth muscle relaxation by: Group of answer choices inhibiting IP3 channels, leading to
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

1. Inhibiting IP3 channels, leading to decreased Ca2 in the sarcoplasm and reduced contraction.  

2. Increasing the relative activity of MLCP, leading to a decrease in tension.

3. Activating K channels, increasing K leaking out of the cell which hyperpolarizes it and decreases the likelihood of Ca2 entry.

Explanation

In smooth muscle, cyclic AMP (cAMP) mediates relaxation because cAMP inhibits a specific kinase required for myosin light chain protein (MLCP) phosphorylation, thereby triggering contraction in the smooth muscles. It has been shown that cAMP inhibits 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-dependent calcium ions (Ca 2+) release by activation of the cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). PKG proteins act to modulate Ca2+ oscillations by stimulating sarcoplasmic Ca2+-ATPase membrane proteins, increasing Ca2+ in the sarcoplasmic reticulum stores and Ca2+ efflux from the cells, and activate voltage-gated potassium (K) channels, thereby leading to membrane hyperpolarization and reducing Ca2+ entry through Ca2+ channels.

Explain incomplete dominance, using snapdragon<br> flowers as an example.
oee [108]

Answer:

Dominant allele does not completely conceal recessive allele.

Snapdragon with genotype Rr (R being red and r being white), would have a phenotype of pink flowers.

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is where a dominant allele is not able to completely conceal a recessive allele, usually leading to a phenotype which appears to be a combination of the two.

For example, in snapdragons:

The allele for red flowers (R) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (r). Let's say a snapdragon flower had the genotype Rr, one allele for red flowers and one for white. In the case of 'normal' dominance the dominant red flower allele (R) would mask the effects of the recessive white flower allele (r), resulting in the phenotype (outward observable characteristics) of having red flowers.

However here in the case of incomplete dominance, the dominant allele would not be able to fully cover up the effects of the white flower allele, meaning that both colors (red and white) are expressed in the phenotype, resulting in pink flowers.

Hope this helped!
