QUESTION 15 Which of the following statements applies best to the term 'receptor reserve?

Receptor reserve is determined by the number of receptors that are required to be occupied by agonist to initiate a
maximal response compared to the total number of cell-surface receptors.
Receptor reserve, also known as 'spare receptors', occurs when the Kd for agonist binding to the receptor is smaller
than the EC50 determined for a particular physiological response.
Receptor reserve is a useful pharmacological parameter, as it is specific to a particular cell-type.
Receptor reserve refers to the pool of intracellular receptors that are able to translocate to the plasma membrane.

The empty trna moves off and picks up another matching amino acid from the cytoplasm in the cell. the anticodon of the trna, with its attached amino acid, pairs to the codon of the mrna, which is attached to a ribosome. this sequence is repeated until the ribosome reaches a stop codon on the mrna, which signals the end of protein synthesis. the ribosome forms a peptide bond between the amino acids, and an amino acid chain begins to form. when a second trna with its specific amino acid pairs to the next codon in sequence, the attached amino acid breaks from the first trna and is bonded to the amino acid of the second trna.
