- QUESTION 20 Some of the stem cells in bone become osteoclasts during differentiation. Researchers have shown that chemical signals called cytokines are released into the extracellular fluid by bone stem cells in response to environmental stimuli. The researchers also have shown that the cytokines induce these same bone stem cells to differentiate into osteoclasts. This example illustrates how a(n). signal functions in the human body.

- Question 34 The following are events in the transmission of a signal at a chemical synapse. 1. Neurotransmitter binds with receptors associated with the postsynaptic membrane. Calcium ions rush into neuron's cytoplasm. 2. An action potential depolarizes the membrane of the presynaptic axon terminal. 3. The ligand-gated ion channels open. 4. The synaptic vesicles release neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft. Which sequence of events is correct?

The CF gene codes for a protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) which functions as a cAMP-regulated chloride channel. The protein has two membrane-spanning domains, two domains that interact with ATP, and one regulatory domain. The most common defect is in the gene for one of the ATP binding domains. The result is a protein that does not fold correctly in the endoplasmic reticulum, is not properly glycosylated, and is nor transported to the cell surface. Rather, it is degraded in the cytosol within proteasomes. Drugs that foster chaperone interaction with the mutant protein are a potential therapeutic approach. Chaperones A. are always required to direct the folding of proteins. B. when bound to protein increase the rate of protein degradation. C. usually bind to strongly hydrophilic regions of unfolded proteins. D. sometimes maintain proteins in an…arrow_forward

At the start, chamber X contains a solution of urea in wate and chamber Y contains a solution of glucose in water. The molarity (measure of concentration) of urea in chamber X is the same number as the molarity of glucose in chamber Y. Which of the following will occur after sufficient time? There will be overall diffusion of water from Y to X. There will be no overall diffusion of water across the membrane. There will be overall diffusion of water from X to Y.arrow_forwardQuestion 14 ZORANG PENYATA G O a polar head and tail TANAMAN A phospholipid molecule is best described as: O a polar head and nonpolar tail a nonpolar head and tail ****** an adenine with three phosphatesarrow_forward
