Cell Signalling and Transduction The signaling molecules called steroid hormones never enter the blood of humans are made in one location of the body but have their effects some distance away bind to cell surface receptors to trigger chemical cascades are hydrophilic and so cannot penetrate the plasma membrane never enter the blood of humans are made in one location of the body but have their effects some distance away bind to cell surface receptors to trigger chemical cascades are hydrophilic and so cannot penetrate the plasma membrane ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction What is the name of the protein signaling molecule that alters glucose uptake, and where would its receptors be located? Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel PDGF; the blood NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes Insulin; beta cells of the pancreas Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel PDGF; the blood NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes Insulin; beta cells of the pancreas ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction If a disease of the blood vessels caused the endothelial cells of the vessel to die, what effect would that have on the cellular activities associated with vasodilation? Nitric oxide would no longer be produced All of these It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax Nitric oxide would no longer be produced All of these It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction Self-phosphorylation is an excellent mechanism for triggering specific catalytic function of the proteins involved in signal cascades because it allows hydrophilic signaling molecules to cross the plasma membrane makes the receptor more likely to capture the signaling, molecule None of these changes the shape and thus the enzymatic activity of the proteins involved allows hydrophilic signaling molecules to cross the plasma membrane makes the receptor more likely to capture the signaling, molecule None of these changes the shape and thus the enzymatic activity of the proteins involved ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction Why is it that inhaling nitric oxide reduces blood pressure only in the lung tissue and not elsewhere in the body*? None of these Because nitric oxide cannot cross cell membranes and enter the blood Because other body tissues use a different signaling molecule Because nitric oxide breaks down quickly and thus cannot travel far None of these Because nitric oxide cannot cross cell membranes and enter the blood Because other body tissues use a different signaling molecule Because nitric oxide breaks down quickly and thus cannot travel far ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction Which of the following statements about G proteins is false? They must be active before the cell can make needed cAMP They become activated when bound to GDP They are involved in signal cascades They bind to and are regulated by guanine nucleotides They must be active before the cell can make needed cAMP They become activated when bound to GDP They are involved in signal cascades They bind to and are regulated by guanine nucleotides ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
