Answer:

Binding taking place at the receptor site

G protein activates in the cell membrane

Conversion of GDP → GTP

Activation of adenylate cycles

Cyclic production of AMP → ADP

Initiation of the desired reaction in regard to the original message

Cyclic restoration of AMP → ATP

Explanation:

The description of the mechanism:

Right off the bat, epinephrine attaches to a molecule called a receptor (beta-adrenergic protein).

G protein, which is found on the inner side of the plasma membrane, is activated when epinephrine binds to it.

The GDP-carrying Alpha subunit of G protein is isolated during activation. After that, the GDP is translated to GTP.

Adenylate cyclase is then activated by GTP.

The only enzyme that can catalyze the transformation of ATP to CAMP is adenylate cyclase (Cyclic adenosine monophosphate). As a result, the CAMP molecule (secondary messenger) is produced.

CAMP stimulates protein kinase A, and the cycle repeats till the glycogen phosphorylase enzyme is triggered.

After that, the cyclic amp is brought back and restored.

Why is the menstrual cycle an important adaptation for reproduction in humans?
raketka [301]
The menstrual cycle is practically controlled by a system of hormones that is necessary for reproduction, and when the hormone reaches a heightened level, something called estradiol is made, then the stimulation of the ovaries by a luteinizing hormone.

Once that hormone begins developing, the ovaries make an egg that quickly becomes an ovum. The ovary then releases one egg or two during ovulation. The endometrium (the part that sheds its own cells for the menstruation) peaks after ovulation and changes the lining of the uterus to prepare for the hectic process of pregnancy and child labor. 

Hope that was helpful.

What is pollination? Identify three ways pollen can be transferred. How is cross-pollination different
Stells [14]

Answer:

The transfer of pollen to a stigma, ovule, flower, or plant to allow fertilization. It can be transferred by things that feed from what has pollen. Self-pollination occurs when the pollen from the anther is deposited on the stigma of the same flower, or another flower on the same plant. Cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different individual of the same species.

vredina [299]

Answer: Aerobic respiration will not take place and the animal will lose large amounts of ATP.

Explanation:

Mitochondria is the powerhouse that converts product of glycolysis that occurs in the cytoplasm into energy and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. In the presence of oxygen (aerobic), products of glycolysis such as pyruvate enters the mitochondria, joins the kreb cycle and the electron transport chain yielding a large amount of energy or ATP.

Aerobic respiration that yield large amounts of ATP strictly occus in the mitochondrial matrix whereas anearobic respiration occurs in the cytoplasm.
