What else can I help you with?
What receptor has a ligand that can cross the cell membrane that binds?
Intracellular
Where is the receptor for cortisol found?
Receptors of protein hormones are present in plasma membrane but for steroid hormones no membrane receptors are needed as they can enter cell membrane , mobile receptors pic steroid hormones from cell membrane and carry them to nucleus .
Growth factor hormones such as insulin bind to which type of receptor?
tyrosine kinase receptor!!
What cell part receives nerve impulses and hormones from other?
receptor molecules on cell membranes receptor molecules on cell membranes
Do hormones enter cells through exocytosis or pinocytosis?
Hormones typically enter cells through specific receptor-mediated endocytosis, a form of pinocytosis. The hormone binds to a receptor on the cell surface, initiating a process in which the hormone-receptor complex is internalized into the cell through vesicle formation. Hormones are not typically released by cells through exocytosis; instead, they are released into the extracellular space to exert their effects on target cells.
Which type of membrane protein attaches to specific hormones such as insulin?
The type of membrane protein that attaches to specific hormones such as insulin is a receptor protein. Receptor proteins are specialized proteins located on the cell membrane that recognize and bind to specific molecules such as hormones, triggering a cellular response. In the case of insulin, its receptor protein on the cell membrane binds to insulin, leading to cellular uptake of glucose and other metabolic responses.
Can hearing aid correct destruction of receptor hair cells?
No, hearing aids cannot correct the destruction of receptor hair cells.
Do Hormones bind to receptor proteins with high capacity and low affinity?
Hormones do not bind to receptors with high capacity. The major defining properties of a hormone-receptor interaction, and what determines the strength of response is binding affinity and efficacy.
Is the responsiveness of cells to hormones determined by the presence or absence of specific hormone receptor proteins?
Yes, the responsiveness of cells to hormones is determined by the presence of specific hormone receptor proteins on the cell surface or inside the cell. When a hormone binds to its corresponding receptor, it triggers a cellular response. Cells without the specific receptor for a hormone are not able to respond to that hormone.
What is the ability of certain hormones to attach to a cell determined by?
receptor molecules in the cell membrane
How do hormones establish selectivity?
Hormones are ligands that bond to cells and carry a specific receptor. The ligand bonds its receptor to form a complex that acquires a purpose. The ligand triggers a change in the receptor, which activates a potential biological function. Cells that do not exhibit the receptor never receive the signal.
What happen when receptor is stimulated?
When a receptor is stimulated it triggers impulses in other neurons....hope this was helpful and correct
