B) Hydropholic hormones cannot pass through the plasma membrane without help. Therefore, there are transport proteins that carry the hydrophillic hormones to the cytosol where it can bind its receptor C) Hydrophilic hormone signalling involves membrane receptors that have the ability to activate adenylyl cyclase, producing cAMP. cAMP then affects the activity of numerous proteins in the cytoplam. D) Hydrophobic hormones easily enter the plasma membrane. Therefore, there is no need for hydrophinic hormone receptors to be on the extracellular surface.arrow_forwardDescribe how the nervous system and the endocrine system work together in the fight-flight response.

- Peanut and tree allergies are on the rise in modern, industrialized countries. Exposure to a protein in the nuts causes sensitive people to react with skin hives, reddened skin, breathing problems including the closing of the throat (anaphylaxis), and even heart attack. Much like a mosquito bite or other insect bite, this is all mostly due to the actions of one hormone in particular. 1) What hormone triggers this reaction? 2) Why does it cause swelling/closing of the throat/airways? 3) How does it change or impact the heart rate and/or blood pressure to life-threatening levels?arrow_forwardPractice question 1B) Mutations in the signalling pathways depicted above have been associated with an increased incidence of several types of cancer.
