The answer is option B
The cortisol is a steroid hormone that is secreted by the adrenal cortex.The cortisol has a wide variety of actions according to their target site.The actions include control on the glucose metabolism,anti-inflammatory actions,maintenance of the salt balance etc..It is a chief glucocorticoid.The cortisol binds with a surface receptor and forms a protein receptor complex.This enters the nucleus of the cell and controls the cell function.
Cortisol functions inside a cell by opening K+ channels. binding with a receptor protein that enters...
Which of the following sequences is correct? a. binding of a signaling molecule to its receptor → G protein activation → phospholipase C activation → IP3 production → increase in cytoplasmic calcium concentration b. binding of a growth factor to its receptor → phosphorylation cascade → activation of transcription factor → transcription c. diffusion of a signaling molecule across the plasma membrane → binding of the signaling molecule to its receptor → movement of the signaling molecule-receptor complex into the...
Drosopholia eye development is an example of cell differentiation directed by signal binding to a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). In this pathway, R7 photoreceptor development requires a receptor (SEV, sevenless), which is activated by binding to a plasma membrane bound signal (BOSS, bride-of-sevenless) displayed on the adjacent R8 cell Receptor activation leads to activation of RAS via two proteins, Drk (down- stream of receptor kinases) and Sos (son-of-sevenless). Activated RAS leads to activation of a phosphorylation cascade that activates the...
Question 25 (1 point) The protein functions of cortisol is NOT consistent with which of the following statements? a) Decreases the transport of amino acids across cell membranes b) Increases the transport of amino acids across cell membranes c Reduces the use of amino acid consumption for protein synthesis d) Increase cortisol can result in muscle atrophy Question 26 (1 point) Which of the following statements is NOT true? a) Cortisol secretion is lowest around 800 hrs The majority of...
Question 10-12
10. During the mating process, yeast cells respond to pheromones secreted by other yeast cells. These pheromones bind GPCRs on the surface of the responding cell and lead to the activation of proteins inside the cell. When a wild-type yeast cell senses the pheromone, its physiology changes in preparation for mating: the cell stops growing until it finds a mating partner. If yeast cells do not undergo the appropriate response after sensing a pheromone, they are considered sterile....
1. You are interested in how
cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) functions to affect
learning and memory, and you decide to study its function in the
brain. It is known that, in the cells you are studying, PKA works
via a signal transduction pathway like the one depicted in Figure
16-15. Furthermore, it is also known that activated PKA
phosphorylates the transcriptional regulator called Nerd that then
activates transcription of the gene Brainy. Which, if any
of the situations described...

42. Which statement is NOT true about DNA? a) DNA acts like an enzyme by binding amino acids together using dehydration synthesis. b) Before cells divide both strands must be copied and one is provided for each new cell cm RNA is copied from a piece of DNA termed a gene. d) DNA is not always copied perfectly. Mistakes, mutations, occur and result in changed proteins, e) DNA functions as code for the synthesis of proteins. 43. A section of...
Q13 Cyanide is a deadly poison that attaches to cytochrome c oxidase, the last protein in the electron transport chain before the terminal electron acceptor. Based on your knowledge of the electron transport chain, which statement below best describes the action of cyanide on the body? A. Cyanide does not allow the Krebs cycle to be completed by blocking acetyl CoA from entering this cycle. This action shuts down the entire process of cellular metabolism. B. Cyanide does not allow...
