Steroid hormone

  • The cell signaling pathways induced by the steroid hormones regulate specific genes within the cell's DNA. The hormones and receptor complex act as transcription regulators by increasing or decreasing the synthesis of mRNA molecules from specific genes.
  • Steroid hormones are not able to target every cell within the body, so the overall response is slower. They bind to receptors on the cell's surface and the receptors aid in helping the steroid hormones enter the cell.
  • Hormones work by binding to protein receptors either inside target cells or on their plasma membranes. The binding of a steroid hormone forms a hormone-receptor complex that affects gene expression in the nucleus of the target cell.
  • Steroids pass into a cell's nucleus, bind to specific receptors and genes and trigger the cell to make proteins.

Doss [256]

Answer:

( please like and hope it helps)

A) Elephas-2 has 13 sequence differences from the reference animal, and this is the greatest number of animals in the table.

B) From left to right, the order at the tips of the cladogram is: Dugong , Elephas , Loxodonta , Mammathus.

(Loxodonta and Mammuthus can also be reversed)

C) The molecular data, such as that for are widely conserved protein such as cytochrome b , show conserved similarities between organisms such as to dugongs and proboscideans and can be used to support the existence of this relationship.

D) The animals that are related ones had a common assister with certain genetic characteristics. Adaptation to different habitats leads to diversification of morphology but does not change evolutionary relationships.
