A first messenger molecule activates a receptor that stimulates enzyme a, which synthesizes 100 second messenger molecules. In t

urn, each second messenger activates only one molecule of enzyme b, which once activated, phosphorylates 100 molecules of enzyme c that each phosphorylate 75 molecules of enzyme d. In the last step, each enzyme d phosphorylates 50 transcription factors. How many transcription factors are phosphorylated in response to the first messenger binding to the receptor? how many transcription factors would be phosphorylated if one copy of the enzyme d gene were inactivated (heterozygous genotype) so that there were only half the number of functional enzyme d molecules in the cell? explain.

A total of 3.75 x 10⁷ transcription factors are phosphorylated in response to the first messenger. The number of transcription factors phosphorylated if one copy of the d enzyme is inactivated is 3.7499 x 10⁷.

<h3>What is phosphorylation?</h3>

Phosphorylation is a posttranslational modification that suffers proteins during the activation of a singling pathway.

Phosphorylation is capable of activating and/or deactivating specific signaling pathways.

In this case, phosphorylation activates a molecular cascade involving the progressive phosphorylation of different substrates.

In this case,  3.75 x 10⁷ transcription factors are phosphorylated in response to the first messenger (100 x 100 x 75 x 50 = 3.75 x 10⁷), whereas the number of transcription factors phosphorylated if one copy of d enzyme is inactivated is 3.7499 x 10⁷ (3.75 x 10⁷ - 50).

Select two symbols that represent a statistic.
Anna35 [415]
<h3>Answers: Choice B and Choice C</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

The symbol \mu or mu represents the population mean, which is a parameter.

The symbol \sigma or sigma represents the population standard deviation, which is also a parameter. The same goes for the symbol p, without any hat on top, as it is the population proportion.

If something represents a population data item, then it's automatically a parameter. It might help to think both words "population" and "parameter" start with the letter P.

Based on those previous paragraphs, we can rule out choices A, D and E. Those three items are parameters. This leaves <u>choices B and C</u> as our final answers.

\overline{x} or xbar is a sample statistic, and it represents an estimate of the population mean. Similarly, \hat{p} or p-hat is the sample proportion and it represents an estimate of the population proportion. These are considered unbiased estimators.

Another example of an unbiased estimator is the variable s which represents the sample standard deviation and it estimates the value of sigma. All of these estimators have one thing in common: they are based on a sample, which in turn tries to predict what the corresponding population value is. In other words, the statistic's job is to estimate the parameter.

Below is a reference table for all of the items mentioned.
