Cell Signalling and Transduction Which of the following is true about a hydrophilic signaling molecule? Since it can enter the cell, it directly affects some specific cell process It is a steroid It might trigger a signal cascade that causes some effect in a cell Its receptor is located in the cytosol of the target cell Since it can enter the cell, it directly affects some specific cell process It is a steroid It might trigger a signal cascade that causes some effect in a cell Its receptor is located in the cytosol of the target cell 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 Insulin; beta cells of the pancreas NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel PDGF; the blood Insulin; beta cells of the pancreas NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes 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 changes the shape and thus the enzymatic activity of the proteins involved None of these makes the receptor more likely to capture the signaling, molecule allows hydrophilic signaling molecules to cross the plasma membrane changes the shape and thus the enzymatic activity of the proteins involved None of these makes the receptor more likely to capture the signaling, molecule ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction The signaling molecules called steroid hormones are hydrophilic and so cannot penetrate the plasma membrane are made in one location of the body but have their effects some distance away bind to cell surface receptors to trigger chemical cascades never enter the blood of humans are hydrophilic and so cannot penetrate the plasma membrane are made in one location of the body but have their effects some distance away bind to cell surface receptors to trigger chemical cascades never enter the blood of humans ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction In the signal transduction mechanism known as protein phosphorylation phosphorylated proteins act with enzymes to trigger the signal cascade the signaling molecule binds to a surface receptor All of these receptor kinases play a key role in triggering the signal cascade phosphorylated proteins act with enzymes to trigger the signal cascade the signaling molecule binds to a surface receptor All of these receptor kinases play a key role in triggering the signal cascade ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
