Explanation

Question 3 of 8

1

Which of the following statements is false?

Select one of the following:

  • appearance of PIP3 at the plasma membrane can activate a protein kinase

  • hydrolysis of GTP by Ras can activate a protein kinase

  • an increase of cytosolic cAMP concentration can activate a protein kinase

  • dimerization of growth factor receptors can activate a protein kinase

  • an increase of cytosolic calcium concentratiojn can activate a protein kinase

  • PIP2 and PIP3

Explanation

Question 6 of 8

1

Arrival of a scent chemical at a scent-sensitive nerve cell causes that cell to

Select one of the following:

  • generate action poencials

  • open voltage-gated sodium channels in the plasma membrane

Question 7 of 8

1

Depolarization of axon terminals causes calcium ions to flow into the cytosol through

Select one of the following:

  • calcium ATPases

Explanation

Question 8 of 8

1

Why majority of transmitters are released from cells by exocytosis?

Select one of the following:

  • because different set of receptors activates Gs

  • Tyrosine kinases are Grb2 receptors

  • Because exocytosis is induced by an increase of cytosolic calcium concentration
