Cell Signalling and Transduction A cell is known to respond to a particular signaling molecule. Which of the following must be true of this cell? It is incapable of signal transduction It is in the heart muscle It is also the site of production for the signaling molecule It contains the receptor for the signaling molecule It is incapable of signal transduction It is in the heart muscle It is also the site of production for the signaling molecule It contains the receptor for the signaling molecule ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Cell Signalling and Transduction Which of the following is true about a hydrophilic signaling molecule? It is a steroid 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 might trigger a signal cascade that causes some effect in a cell It is a steroid 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 might trigger a signal cascade that causes some effect in a cell 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 changes the shape and thus the enzymatic activity of the proteins involved None of these allows hydrophilic signaling molecules to cross the plasma membrane makes the receptor more likely to capture the signaling, molecule changes the shape and thus the enzymatic activity of the proteins involved None of these allows hydrophilic signaling molecules to cross the plasma membrane makes the receptor more likely to capture the signaling, molecule 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*? Because other body tissues use a different signaling molecule Because nitric oxide cannot cross cell membranes and enter the blood None of these Because nitric oxide breaks down quickly and thus cannot travel far Because other body tissues use a different signaling molecule Because nitric oxide cannot cross cell membranes and enter the blood None of these Because nitric oxide breaks down quickly and thus cannot travel far ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
