Cell Signalling and Transduction Which of the following statements about G proteins is false? They bind to and are regulated by guanine nucleotides They must be active before the cell can make needed cAMP They are involved in signal cascades They become activated when bound to GDP They bind to and are regulated by guanine nucleotides They must be active before the cell can make needed cAMP They are involved in signal cascades They become activated when bound to GDP ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction The signaling molecules called steroid hormones bind to cell surface receptors to trigger chemical cascades never enter the blood of humans are made in one location of the body but have their effects some distance away are hydrophilic and so cannot penetrate the plasma membrane bind to cell surface receptors to trigger chemical cascades never enter the blood of humans are made in one location of the body but have their effects some distance away 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; beta cells of the pancreas PDGF; the blood NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel Insulin; beta cells of the pancreas PDGF; the blood NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel 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? Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure All of these Nitric oxide would no longer be produced Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure All of these Nitric oxide would no longer be produced ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction In the signal transduction mechanism known as protein phosphorylation the signaling molecule binds to a surface receptor phosphorylated proteins act with enzymes to trigger the signal cascade receptor kinases play a key role in triggering the signal cascade All of these the signaling molecule binds to a surface receptor phosphorylated proteins act with enzymes to trigger the signal cascade receptor kinases play a key role in triggering the signal cascade All of these ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction Which of the following is true about a hydrophilic signaling molecule? It might trigger a signal cascade that causes some effect in a cell Since it can enter the cell, it directly affects some specific cell process It is a steroid Its receptor is located in the cytosol of the target cell It might trigger a signal cascade that causes some effect in a cell Since it can enter the cell, it directly affects some specific cell process It is a steroid Its receptor is located in the cytosol of the target cell ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
