Secretion of calcium Why does a hormone (for example, epinephrine) generate different reactions in different target cells (for example, in smooth muscle cells)? A. Because the reaction of the cell depends on the amount of the hormone. B. Because of the influence of environment on the cell; for example, body temperature. C. Because cells have different receptor proteins; say, α-and β-receptors. D. It depends on the circumstances; sometimes cell reacts one way, sometimes another. E It depends on the influence of other surrounding cells.arrow_forward

You don’t have any allergies or sensitivities to any of the over the counter headache medicines so you decide to buy the cheapest option. Availability: Excedrin is available as a 200 caplet bottle for $15.51 and each caplet contains 250-mg of acetaminophen (the active ingredient in Excedrin). Advil is available as a 300 tablet bottle for $15.00 and each tablet contains 200-mg of ibuprofen (the active ingredient in Advil). Tylenol is available as a 225 pill bottle for $14.97 and each pill contains 500 mg of paracetamol (the active ingredient in Tylenol). Dosage Information: Paracetamol is dosed at 102 mg per 15 pounds of body mass. Ibuprofen is dosed at 113 mg per 25 pounds of body mass. Acetaminophen is dosed as 240 mg per 35 pounds of body mass. Goal: Calculate the cheapest option to “cure” a headache.arrow_forward

In most cases, the beta cells are destroyed by an immune response. Both genetic and environmental factors are involved in triggering the immune response. A. The immune system usually does NOT destroy the beta cells. If the cells are destroyed, it is a failure of (memory) (specificity)(tolerance) (any one of these) (none of these).arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT an effect of the nerve agent, tetrodotoxin: Group of answer choices a.

- The characteristics of vitamin P include the followings except: Select one: a. It increases the level of hyaluronidase which prevents the oxidation of ascorbic acid and adrenaline, as result it increases the strength of the blood vessels and capillaries b. It is related to flavonoids and phenolic compounds c. It decreases the capillary fragility and their permeability d. Vitamin P acts synergistically with ascorbic acidarrow_forwardIt is a warm day and you feel a little chilly. On checking your temperature, you find that your body temperature is 1.5 degrees below normal. Suggest 3 possible reasons for this situation. Describe briefly how your body will react to this dip in temperature.arrow_forwardWhich statement below best describes whether or not there is an advantage of using iPSCs to induce repair of bodily damage within a patient over using embryonic stem cells that have been donated? a. Because the iPSCs originated from the patient and thus probably will avoid rejection by the patient’s own immune system. b. Embryonic stem cells are easier to obtain. c. There are more ethical issues involved in iPSCs. d. Only embryonic stem cells are vastly renewable.arrow_forward
