When a signal molecule binds to a receptor protein the receptor protein may change the?
shape.
Why is it important that each receptor protein binds to only one signal molecule?
because every receptor has specific shape on it, which binds with specific molecule.
When a signal molecule such as a growth hormone binds to a receptor protein in the plasma membrane it stays on the outside of the cell. How might the inside of the cell know that the signal has bound?
Due to a conformational change of the receptor protein....
What is a molecule such as a neurotransmitter or a hormone that binds to a receptor called?
what are the characteristics of action potentials
What must occur for a message to be sent from the outside of the cell to the inside?
dis dick
What is a molecule that acts as signal when it binds to a receptor?
Intracellular receptor
When a signal molecule binds to a receptor protein the receptor protein may change the?
shape.

What describes a drug target?
The molecule to which a drug binds.
What molecule does not change?
the strarch molecule binds to an enzyme
What molecule binds to the receptor to start the reaction inside the cell?
Cells have proteins called receptors that bind to signaling molecules and initiate a response.Different receptors are specific for different molecules. That means that they will respond only to that signal. Your eyes respond to light but your ears do not.There are hundreds of receptor types found in cells, and varying cell types have different populations of receptors.

What is a small molecule that specifically binds to another molecule?
is called a ligand.
What occurs to a molecule of the enzyme trypsin AFTER human pancreas binds to a molecule of protein?
Trypsin is an enzyme that is produced in the pancreas. After the human pancreas binds to a molecule of protein, auto catalysis occurs to a molecule of trypsin.
What is a drug target?
the molecule to which a drug binds
When a neuron responds to a particular neurotransmitter by opening gated ion channels the neurotransmitter is serving as which part of the signal pathway?
Signal Molecule Synaptic transmission is when it moves across the synaptic gap, and it then just binds to the receptor on the other side.
What Nucleotides pairs are found in a DNA molecule?
Guanine which binds with Cytosine, and Adenine which binds with Thymine.
