Biology
1 answer:
Cloud [144]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

This binding causes a conformational change in the receptor which enters into the nucleus and binds DNA to activate transcription

Explanation:

Testosterone is a steroid hormone responsible for inducing protein synthesis and growth of tissues with androgen receptors. Testosterone receptors, also known as androgen receptors, are a class of nuclear receptors activated by binding androgenic hormones (e.g. testosterone) in the cytoplasm, whose binding induces a conformational change of the receptors that are subsequently translocated to the nucleus. Within the cell nucleus, these activated receptors form homodimers that bind DNA in order to promote the transcription of target genes capable of regulating cell growth, cell cycle progression and survival.

Karen knows that trees use energy from the sun to make food. she wants to plant several trees in her backyard, but she is worrie
melisa1 [442]

Karen is NOT correct. This is because the sun's energy is a renewable resource. This means that its  use is sustainable hence it is a substance of economic value that can be replaced or replenished in the same or less amount of time as it takes to draw the supply down. Though the sun is a finite resource,  it cannot be depleted within human timescale.
