A researcher introduces a signal produced by bacteria to eukaryotic cells that she is culturing in the laboratory. Remarkably, s

he notices that this signal results in an increase in eukaryotic gene expression. How is this possible?
A.This gene expression is likely independent of the presence of the prokaryotic signal.

B.The signal is either similar in structure to a ligand used by eukaryotes, or this signaling pathway is utilized by both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

C.This signaling pathway might actually be utilized by both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

D.This signal is likely similar in structure to ligands utilized by eukaryotic cells.

E.This prokaryotic signal likely travels directly into eukaryotic cells and acts as a transcription factor.

Answer:B.The signal is either similar in structure to a ligand used by eukaryotes, or this signaling pathway is utilized by both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Explanation: Eucaryotic cell is a cell whose Nucleus is clearly defined and confined within a membrane.

Procaryotic cell is a cell which does not have a clearly defined Nucleus.

Signals are stimuli which can be felt by an organism, specific organismal have its own kinds of signals which it can respond to,but some times signals with specific features can create response in two or more type or species of organisms. What happened in the lab is a case where a partial signal can be sensed by both procaryotes and eucaryotes because it has either a similar structure or its pathway can be used by either Eucaryotic cells and procaryotic cells.

Answer:

The correct answer should be option A.

It is because there is only one difference in the sequence of protein synthesized in the Gorilla gorilla and Homo sapiens.

As they have the least difference in the nucleotide or amino acid sequences of the protein they would the most closely related as compared to others.

With the current energy shortage, nuclear energy can been seen as: a hazard a solution A and B neither A nor B
Free_Kalibri [48]

The correct answer is - A and B.

The nuclear energy can been seen at either way, and that is why it has both its supporters and its critics.

The nuclear energy is cheaper, cleaner, and nuclear centrals can produce much more and much more efficiently as well, so it can easily be seen why it can be extremely useful in a world where the energy demand is ever-growing.

On the other side, there's a huge risk with the nuclear centrals because if there's some problem, it can all turn into a catastrophe that will affect huge area. The consequences of a nuclear reactor exploding or leaking are long term, and takes lot of time that the area can be used for anything. Lots of human lives can be lost, and affected for numerous generations, as well as destroying the natural environment in a brutal way.

Both the endocrine and nervous system are major regulating systems of the body however the nervous system has been compared to a
jeka94

Answer:

The nervous system produces rapid responses while the endocrine system generates slow but long term responses.

Explanation:

The nervous system rapidly generates a response by sending the sensory and motor information in the form of nerve impulses. The rapid responses of the nervous system are compared with text messages that are delivered instantly to the other person.

On the other hand, the endocrine system produces a relatively slow response by releasing hormones. Therefore, it is compared with a letter that takes a few days, depending on the distance, to be delivered to the other person. However, the effects of the endocrine system are long-lasting as compared to the short term responses generated by the nervous system.
