Caffeine leads to a vasoconstriction, raises the epinephrine levels, and increases nervous signaling. A metabolite of caffeine b

locks phosphodiesterase. What is the most likely impact of caffeine on cell signaling?A. Caffeine directly binds and activates the protein kinases which signal the described effects, enhancing the effects of caffeine.B. Inhibition of the phosphodiesterase results in an elevated cAMP levels and PKA activation, leading to increased glycogen breakdown and increased phosphorylation of events controlling the physiology of caffeine addiction.C. Phosphodiesterase leads to increased PIP2 breakdown, inhibiting Akt signaling. This alters the glycogen metabolism and glucose uptake in the liver after caffeine ingestion.D. The vascular effects of caffeine are long term, indicating a steroid-enhanced activity supported by loss of phosphodiesterase action

Answer:

The answer is letter B.

Explanation:

The inhibition of the phosphodiesterase is the principal caffeine impact on cell signaling, because is elevates the AMP rates and PKA activation resulting in increased glycogen breakdown and phosphorylation that controls the caffeine addiction physiology symptons.

Pain receptors are free nerve endings that respond to tissue damage and display sensory adaptation true or false
ANEK [815]
False.

Pain receptors are free nerve endings- nociceptors- that are stimulated by the chemical released from damaged tissue.
These receptors alert us for possible danger but they don't display sensory adaptation. Sensory adaptation it's when the response to stimulus decreases even though the stimulus is the same, we just become unaware of it.
In pain sensations, that doesn't happen.

List two ways that a fuel cell differs from an ordinary battery
Alecsey [184]

The simple answer is that in a battery the chemical reactions that produce the electrical current are produced from materials that are already in the battery itself, whereas in a fuel cell, the reactants, almost always Hydrogen and Oxygen are fed to the cell like an external fuel.

. However, while a battery makes electricity from the energy it has stored inside the battery, a fuel cell makes its electricity from fuel in an external fuel tank This means that while a battery may run dead, a fuel cell will make electricity as long as fuel is supplied. For hydrogen fuel cells, hydrogen is the fuel and it's stored in a tank connected to the fuel cell. When hydrogen in the tank runs low, you refill it, or replace it with a full tank.

You've been growing numerous plants in a greenhouse in dishes called flats. Different flats have different number of plant speci
KATRIN_1 [288]
I think the correct answer would be C. It would be restricting water and/or nutrients, instead of supplying ample quantities of both that would not change the results of the experiment. This is because you are still supplying the same amount of nutrients and other things needed by the plant so the ratio of the growth of the plants will still be the same.
