Cell Signalling and Transduction In terms of cell communication, what do bacterial pathogens such as cholera and anthrax have in common? They alter the chemical structure of key signaling molecules They prevent the production of key signaling molecules They block the normal functioning of signal transduction mechanisms They destroy the receptors for key signaling molecules They alter the chemical structure of key signaling molecules They prevent the production of key signaling molecules They block the normal functioning of signal transduction mechanisms They destroy the receptors for key signaling molecules 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 Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax All of these It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure Nitric oxide would no longer be produced Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax All of these It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure 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 Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes Insulin; beta cells of the pancreas PDGF; the blood Insulin; many different cell types that use glucose for fuel NGF; the nerves involved in simple reflexes ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction Nitroglycerin has long been administered to human patients suffering from chronic chest pain (angina). This medication works because it breaks down into nitric oxide, which increases blood flow to the heart mimics the action of signal receptors is broken down into hormones that affect the heart interferes with chemical cascades that trigger contraction of heart muscle breaks down into nitric oxide, which increases blood flow to the heart mimics the action of signal receptors is broken down into hormones that affect the heart interferes with chemical cascades that trigger contraction of heart muscle ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
