Answer:
There are many receptors for thyroxine on different target cells (tissues), so its effect can be huge
Explanation:
Target cell for a certain hormone is a cell that have hormone receptor specific for that hormone. There are two main types of receptors on target cell:
- cell membrane receptors (also called trans membrane receptors)-usually for peptide hormones, such as insulin
- intracellular receptors (also called nuclear receptors)-usually for steroid hormones, such as testosterone.
Hormone binding to the receptor leads to the signal cascade within the cell, which results in cell response.
Receptors for thyroid hormones are nuclear receptors.
Answer:
BbxBb.
Explanation:
If Bb gene is crossed with Bb, the offspring is produced with normal hearing because both the genes are recessive in which the deafness gene hide and the hearing gene is dominant so the offspring can hear sounds clearly. The dominant A gene is responsible for deafness and we can see the offspring BbxBb in which no dominant gene is present. The other three offspring are deaf because of the presence of dominant A gene in their genetic makeup.
Three nonpolar molecules that are used in everyday live are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and ethylene (C2H4).
Ethylene is used to make plastic and ripen fruits and methane is used to produce electricity and power garbage trucks. Besides its usage in the crucial processes of photosynthesis and cell respiration that keep us alive, carbon dioxide is important in refrigeration and is also found in fire extinguishers.
Hope this helps!
