Which of the following statements best describes the role of adenylyl cyclase in the epinephrine signaling pathway?

Biology
1 answer:
Nesterboy [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It accelerates the production of a second messenger.

Explanation:

Adenylyl cyclase is an enzyme capable of converting ATP molecules into cyclic adenosine monophosphate AMP (cAMP). The cAMP molecule is considered to be a second messenger that transfers the hormonal signal (i.e., epinephrine) inside the cell. Subsequently, cAMP activates molecular signaling events by binding and thus activating cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). Finally, this last protein (PKA) phosphorylates different proteins that control many diverse cellular processes.

During the cell cycle, specifically G1 interphase, a cell must reach a sufficient size and produce enough ATP in order to A) und
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

The cell cycle is the cyclically ordered sequence of events taking place in the cells associated with the division of the cell.

The cell cycle takes place in two phases: the interphase proceeded by M-Phase. The interphase of the cell cycle proceeds in G₁, S and G₂ phase. During the G₁ phase, the cell prepares itself to prepare for the next important phase marked by the synthesis or replication of the genetic component of the cell.

The changes that take place during the G₁ phase thus includes the increase in size and the production of ATP as DNA replication is an energy-dependent process.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

Different types of dominance
kiruha [24]
There are three types of dominance. Incomplete, complete, and co-dominance. Complete dominance is when the dominant trait completely masks the recessive. incomplete dominance is when the dominant allele doesn’t completely mask the recessive allele, sometimes resulting in blending. Co-dominance occurs when both alleles are expressed at the same time.

Sometimes, pregnant women are very emotional. This is believed to be caused by extra estrogen and progesterone that are released
Strike441 [17]

Activational effect is the correct answer.

Activational effect is an impermanent hormonal effect that leads to a change in physiological activity or behavior in both humans and adult animals. For instance, when testosterone levels rise in male songbirds they become more aggressive and tend to engage in courtship behavior. Also, a pregnant woman may get more emotional than usual due to an extra level of progesterone and estrogen during pregnancy.

the couple is also concerned about their child inheriting hemophilia, another rare disease, which is x-linked. natalie’s brother
IgorC [24]

Hemophilia is a recessive X-linked condition and is inherited from parents. . The probability that Natalie and Daniel’s first child has hemophilia is<u> 1/4</u>, not 1/8. The statement is<u> false.</u>

<h3>What is an X-linked gene?</h3>

When talking about sex-linked genes, we refer to all those genes located in one of the sex-chromosomes and not in the somatic ones.

X-linked genes are the genes located specifically in the X sex chromosome.

Traits coded by these genes are inherited. This is, X-linked genes are transmitted from parents to children through generations.

According to this, X-linked genetic disorders will be inherited as well.

  • Men have a high probability of being affected since they only have one copy of the X chromosome.
  • In women, the effect of the mutation might be musk in heterozygous state if the mutation is recessive.

Hemophilia is a recessive X-linked disorder, which means it is coded by the recessive allele.

  • X+ ⇒ X chrosomosome with Dominant allele
  • X- ⇒ X chrosomosome with Recessive allele

<u>Genotype              Phenotype</u>

X+X+                   Healthy woman

X+X-                    Healthy carrier woman

X-X-                     Hemophilic woman

X+Y                      Healthy man

X-Y                       Hemophilic man

Let us make a pedigree of these families,

<u>Natalie's family</u>:

Mother         healthy carrier          X+X-

Father          healthy                      X+Y

Brother        hemophilic                X-Y  

Natalie         Healthy                     X+X- or X+X+  

Natalie has 1/2 chances of being carrier X+X- and 1/2 of being X+X+.

<u>Daniel's family</u>:

Mother         healthy carrier          X+X-

Father          hemophilic                X-Y  

Sister           hemophilic                X-X-

Daniel          Healthy                      X+Y

He has 1/2 chances of being healthy X+Y and 1/2 of being affected X-Y.

According to the product probability rule, if events A and B are independent from each other, the probability of occurrence of both events together is

P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B)

In this case,

  • event A is Daniel being affected ⇒ 1/2
  • event B is Natalie being carrier ⇒ 1/2

P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B) = 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4

The probability that Natalie and Daniel’s first child has hemophilia is 1/4, not 1/8. The statement is<u> false.</u>

What is the expected colorimetric result from the negative control in your assay?
mote1985 [20]
<span>3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine or TMB is a chromogenic substrate visualising reagent used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), it yields a blue color when oxidized, typically as a result of oxygen radicals produced by the hydrolysis of hydrogen peroxide by HRP, (thermofisher). The expected colorimetric result from the negative control in your assay will be no development of blue color</span>
