Communication among cells is required for the coordination of body functions. cells are able to communicate with each other mainly through nerve impulses and hormones. what cell part receives nerve impulses and hormones from other cells? a. lipid molecules on cell walls b. chloride channels in cell cytoplasm c. electron transport chains in cell cytoplasm d. receptor molecules on cell membranes

Cells tend to have a relatively small and uniform size. why aren’t cells larger?

The dna in a cell’s nucleus encodes proteins that are eventually targeted to every membrane and compartment in the cell, as well as proteins that are targeted for secretion from the cell. for example, consider these two proteins: phosphofructokinase (pfk) is an enzyme that functions in the cytoplasm during glycolysis. insulin, a protein that regulates blood sugar levels, is secreted from specialized pancreatic cells. assume that you can track the cellular locations of these two proteins from the time that translation is complete until the proteins reach their final destinations.for each protein, identify its targeting pathway: the sequence of cellular locations in which the protein is found from when translation is complete until it reaches its final (functional) destination. (note that if an organelle is listed in a pathway, the location implied is inside the organelle, not in the membrane that surrounds the organelle.)

Which way do the nitrogenous bases in dna pair up? a. a and g; t and c b. a and c; t and g c. a and t; g and c d. a and a; t and t; g and g; c and c
