Two of the five types of taste buds are activated by directly hypopolarizing the taste buds; i.e. do not involve a second-messen

ger pathway. The tastes that activate these receptors are:
Biology

Answer: salty and sour

Explanation:

Taste buds consist of the taste receptor cells and they're the nerve endings on the tongue that provide the sense of taste.

Based on the information given, the tastes that activate these receptors are salty and sour. The tastes depolarize the cell receptor directly.

imagine a cell-surface receptor protein is being newly synthesized. How can it get into the membrane that it will ultimately be
motikmotik

Answer:

the steps for a new receptor synthesis:

Explanation:

Do not forget the steps vary from an eukarityc cell to prokarityc one.  

IN AN EUKARYOTIC CELL:

1- Transcription: in the nucleus, mRNA is synthesized from the DNA sequence that codifies the protein. Exons are spliced if needed by spliceosomes.  

2- From nucleus into cytoplasm: mRNA goes through nuclear membrane into the cytoplasm were ribosomes, substrates for protein synthesis and other organelles are.

3- Ribosomes recognize a signal in mRNA and start reading the genetic code, three consecutive nucleotides at a time and adjust the correspondent tRNAs (tRNAs carry the aminoacids)  

4- Peptide bonds are formed between consecutives aminoacids, and a polypeptide is build up according to the mRNA sequence.

5- (The mRNA has a signal that is recognized by the rough endoplasmic reticulum) The peptide goes into this reticulum (RER) and then into Golgi apparatus. (more chemical modifications are made if needed). By this moment the protein has an inserted portion in a lipid membrane.

6- The protein is transported in a vessel that finally fusions with cytoplasmic membrane and the receptor is in destiny. Hydrophobic aminoacid sequences are inserted in membrane.

IN A PROKARYTIC CELL:

1- Transcription (no splicing is needed, there are not exons)

2- There are not nucleus and cytoplasm divided (no transport)

3- Ribosomes recognize a signal in mRNA and start reading the genetic code, three consecutive nucleotides at a time and adjust the correspondent tRNAs (tRNAs carry the aminoacids)

4- Peptide bonds are formed between consecutives aminoacids, and a polypeptide is build up according to the mRNA sequence.

5- The mRNA has a signal that is guides the growing protein to cellular membrane. Hydrophobic aminoacid sequences are inserted in membrane.

Is blood clotting an example of a positive or negative feedback mechanism? Explain your answer based on the description of the m
serg [7]

Answer:

Blood clothing is an example of positive feedback.

This type of feedback mechanism is useful to the body because it multiplies the factor that intervenes in clotting accelerating the process.

If a toxin affects the molecules that signal for platelets the feedback will not be effective enough to produce clotting and the body will keep bleeding.

Explanation:

Blood clotting is an example of positive feedback due to the fact that when the vascular endothelium is damaged  platelets will go to this area and activate themselves once they are in contact with the collagen fibers of the damaged structure. When the platelets are activated they will release the contents that is stored in their granules. One of the contents is a Gq-linked protein receptor cascade,  that will increase the concentration of calcium in the platelets. Calcium activates protein kinase C, which, in turn, activates phospholipase A2 (PLA2). PLA2  will modifies  an  integrin membrane  increasing its affinity to bind fibrinogen. The activated platelets change their  shape , and the fibrinogen cross-links with the integrin membrane aiding  in  the aggregation of adjacent platelets. After this the coagulation cascade takes place. there are two pathways the extrinsic  and the extrinsic one.

The extrinsic pathway will be activated due to tissular factor released  by the platelets and the intrinsic pathway will be activated due to endothelial collagen. The final product of both pathways is factor x.

Factor x will transform prothrombin into thrombin will activate the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin. Thrombin will form a net of fibrin that will the clot.

A cascade reaction is useful because every component of the cascade are related making a quick reaction once that one of then is activated and can activate other or more factors.

If a toxin affects the molecules that signals for platelets, platelets will not go to the damaged area and in consequence there will not be thrombin and fibrin to form the clot together with platelets.
