Which of the Following Series of Events Are in the Correct

question 37

Multiple Choice

Which of the following series of events are in the correct order?

• A) chemical binds to receptor, signal transduction pathway stimulates transcription activator, target gene is transcribed and translated
• B) signal transduction pathway stimulates receptor, transcription activator is activated by target gene
• C) chemical binds to receptor, target gene is transcribed and translated, signal transduction pathway stimulates proteins that bring about desired changes
• D) signal transduction pathway activates receptor, chemical binds to receptor, target gene stimulates transcription activator
• E) chemical binds to receptor, signal transduction pathway stimulates target gene, target gene stimulates transcription activator Signal transduction pathways are initiated by the binding of a chemical signal by a receptor, which initiates the pathway. The pathway usually ends with the stimulation of a transcription activator, which brings about the needed response in the cell by causing the transcription of needed genes.
