Answer:
They act to regulate the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive)
Explanation:
Testosterone is a reproductive hormone in male humans. Testosterone as well as its closely related hormones e.g dihydrotestosterone, all belong to a class of hormones called "Androgens".
Androgens operate by entering into a cell and binds with specific androgen-receptor proteins (AR proteins). This contact activates the AR proteins, forming an androgen-receptor complex.
This complex then translocates into the nucleus of specific cells to bind to the DNA. Once it binds, it either inhibits or promotes the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive). Hence, AR proteins are transcription factors because they play a significant role in regulating transcription of specific genes i.e. turning 'on' or 'off' of specific genes.
This process helps to direct the development of male sexual characteristics.
Easy. HISTORY or GEOGRAPHY books of specific areas you want to know more about.
2 The correct answer is (b)beach erosion to the unprotected coastline
A large storm destroys the greenbelt of an island The consequences is beach erosion to the unprotected coastline. The beach erosion takes place in the area which is not protected.
3 The correct answer is (b) a loss of biodiversity due to human activity
The forest habitat is cleared which results in the loss of biodiversity by human interventions. The area which was the habitat of organisms has now been converted into shopping complex due to which the habitat loss of many organisms took place.
Answer:
A trans membrane protein is a type of integral protein that is found in the entire cell membrane and the membrane protein is attached to the cell membrane.
Many trans membrane proteins functions as channel or gateway which allows the transport of the specific materials which cannot be transported through other means.
The other materials which cannot be transferred by simple diffusion, osmosis or other means is transported by the trans membrane proteins.
Answer:
fluids we drink.
Explanation:
Most body water comes from fluids we drink such as water, juices etc. Our body obtains water by absorbing it directly from the digestive tract. A small amount of water is produced in the metabolism of food particles. Our body loses excess amount of water by excreting it in the form of urine from the body. Kidney is the organ that filters waster materials and excess water from the blood and remove it from the body.
