b. The activation of a G-protein receptor that leads to the secretion of a protein that makes you run.
c. The binding of epinephrine to a G-protein coupled receptor with the subsequent activation of a nuclear receptor.
d. The initiation of a signaling mechanism that leads to breakdown of glycogen into glucose that can then serve as the fuel for ATP production.

Answer:

The correct answer is - D. The initiation of a signaling mechanism that leads to the breakdown of glycogen into glucose that can then serve as the fuel for ATP production.

Explanation:

In challenging or dangerous conditions, the body releases a hormone called Epinephering which is a fight or flight hormone that provides a high amount of energy for the particular action.

Epinephrine hormone binds to beta-adrenergic receptors present on muscles and responsible for the rapid conversion of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate. The glucose results in condition to rapid synthesis of ATP in muscles and thus helps in muscle actions.

What kind of mutations were more beneficial ? Why ?
Alex
A mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene. This can be beneficial if the change gives a new function to or improves the function of that gene. 

<span>The above is a definition. But one must really define "beneficial". Some regard it as beneficial if it helps the specific individual who has it. Others would think it beneficial if it produced some survival advantage that insured more descendents for that individual. </span>

<span>It is the difference between a mutation that allowed for greater athletic ability, but a decreased desire for offspring, versus a more moderate athletic enhancement, but a greater desire for offspring. </span>

<span>The small percentage of ways to improve an organism, versus the near infinite ways of harming the organism, mean that most mutations are not going to be beneficial. At best, they will be "inconsequential" - such as a new shade of eye color, or a mole on a section of your skin. </span>

The populist notion of "powers" that can come from mutations is wildly inaccurate. Even assuming a minor power like the ability to see infra red radiation would take thousands upon thousands of mutations over vast amounts of time. A mutation for blindness is far more likely.

<span>It should also be noted that the traditional model of evolutionary theory no longer applies to man. We don't allow changes in our environment, and without such changes, there is no need for one trait more than another to predominate. After all, it is irrelevent that a mutation might allow for greater speed in running, when everyone drives a car.</span>

I hope this helps you!

Explanation:
