Questions and Answers

What are the three typical responses that occur when a hormone binds to its receptor?

  • Inhibition of enzyme activity, enhancement of motor skills, decrease in protein synthesis
  • Change in membrane permeability, alteration of reaction rates, production of a new molecule (correct)
  • Increase in cell size, decrease in ATP production, stopping of gene expression
  • Enhanced vision, improved hearing, increased heart rate
  • How does change in membrane permeability affect cellular function?

  • Decreases the cell's ability to respond to stimuli
  • Alters the shape of the nucleus
  • Increases the number of mitochondria in the cell
  • Controls the entry or exit of substances by adjusting transport proteins (correct)
  • What is the role of altering reaction rates when a hormone binds to its receptor?

  • Enhances photosynthesis in plant cells
  • Regulates the cell's water content
  • Affects metabolic reactions by activating or deactivating enzymes (correct)
  • Increases the number of lysosomes in the cytoplasm
  • How does the production of a new molecule relate to changes in gene expression?
