Answer:

diffusion of the hormone through a target cell membrane

formation of a hormone-receptor complex

activation of a gene

cellular response to the hormone

production of a protein

Explanation:

Steriod hormone are primary hormones derived from lipids. Such as reproductive hormones i.e the testosterone and the estrogens, which are produced by the gonads (testes and ovaries). Steroid hormones are not soluble in water (they are hydrophobic). For a new cell to be activated by a steriod hormone, there are a lot of steps invovled, Steriod hormones must travel to their target cell bound to a transport protein (i.e diffusion of the hormone through a target cell membrane).

Once the hormone binds to the receptor in the targeted cell, a chain of events is initiated that leads to the target cell’s response (I.e formation of a hormone-receptor complex). Hormones plays a vital role in the regulation of physiological processes because of the target cell responses they regulate.

The message a hormone sends is received by a hormone receptor, (a protein located either inside the cell or within the cell membrane). The receptor will process the message by initiating other signaling events such as (activation of a gene) or cellular mechanisms that result in the target cell’s response. Hormone receptors recognize and respond to them (i.e cellular response to the hormone). Thus, the response triggered by a hormone depends not only on the hormone, but also on the target cell.

Once the target cell receives the hormone signal, it can respond in a variety of ways. The response may include the (production of protein synthesis), activation or deactivation of enzymes, alteration in the permeability of the cell membrane,  and stimulation of the secretion of products. etc

Please answer worth 100 point n what direction does an applied force move an object?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

1) in the direction of the applied force

2)when the movement is not in the direction of the applied force it is not work. But if a component, or part of the motion is in the direction of the applied force it is work.

3)Joules/sec

4)Force/displacement

6)Wedges and lever

5)conduction

6)radiation

7)there is no heat flow

8)The average kinetic motion of the particles increases, there is more thermal energy

9)The average kinetic motion of the particles decreases, there is less thermal energy

10)transverse wave

11) sound waves

12)they transfer energy through oscillations in matter

13)the speed of the pitched baseball

14)to detect speed and direction of blood flow

15)green and violet are reflected and red is absorbed

16)visible light

17)as heat

18)infrared light/infrared energy

19)reflection

20) yes, the forces emitted by having the same charge repells them.

21)the flow of electrons

22)You open the circuit and the electrons can't flow

23)You closed the circuit and the electrons can flow

24)I think you meant bipolar, this means 2 poles

So were is the genetic material find in a prokaryotic cell
tiny-mole [99]
Endomembrane system -- not in prokaryotes
cytoskeleton -- a structural part of cytoplasm sometimes occurrent in prokaryotes
mitochondria -- not in prokaryotes 
nucleus -- if this is a "membrane-bound" nucleus, then definitely not in prokaryotes
cytoplasm -- this is the fluid that houses everything in the cell membrane
flagella -- little "tail" for locomotion, so no
cilia -- similar to flagella, little feelers usually for locomotion 
ribosomes -- these make protein using amino acids
chloroplasts -- not in prokaryotes
membrane -- just a casing surrounding a cell or organelle
organelles -- general word for the parts of a cell that perform various functions
cell membrane -- just the casing for the cell, not where genetic material's located
<span>nucleoid --- ding ding ding :-) this is it; a nucleoid is the genetic material which is loosely existing in the cytoplasm of a prokaryotic cell</span>
