Answer:
A. Molecular changes such as extracellular signals on extracellular ligands can result in quick changes in cell behaviour. One example is insulin. Upon insulin binding on the receptor on the cell membrane, the cell release GLUT4 transporters (for muscle cells) to increase uptake of glucose.
B. Slow changes in cell behaviour can be observed for other lipophilic hormones or intracellular receptors such as glucocoortoid or estrogen which reacts with receptors in the cells.
C. Insulin is required to maintain a constant blood glucose level and hence levels of insulin has to be mediated in correspondence to the blood glucose levels. Fast acting signalling is thus required for homeostasis of blood glucose levels. Where for such lipophilic hormones such as steriods, glucocortoid, these hormones tend to have a longer lasting effect and hence results in a slow change.
Answer:
b. Become a dwarf
Explanation:
A decreased secretion of growth hormone can result in pituitary dwarfism which then decreases the rate of cell division of cartilage cells in the epiphyseal plate
The measles virus and rubella virus are two separate viruses. They have different DNA and RNA structures, and the vaccination for the measles virus only "knows" how to attach itself to measles and destroy the virus. It doesn't know how to attach itself to the rubella virus to destroy it, as the vaccination is needed to inform it how to.
The advantage of vaccinating a large amount of the population is that it reduces the chance someone will catch sickness by a great amount, and can possibly eradicate the virus.
Some species we see in Alaska and nowhere else in the Wolrd are:
Bats
Shrews
Bears
Seals
White Wolfs
Sea lions
Racoons
Walrus.
Bears, Seals, White Wolfs and Sea lions survive the cold weather much more than those other animals.
The answer is Phototropism, this is because the tip of the plant moves towards the light and the auxins make the plant elongate on the side with no light.
