Steroid hormones exert their action by?
steroid hormones can pass easily through the plasma membrane, the hormones then bind to intracellular receptors which induce a metabolic pathway which later promotes transcription of a specific gene.
What is anything in the environment that causes a reaction or change in an organism?
Certain chemicals and radiation in the environment can cause a reaction or mutation in an organism. Such changes may alter organisms genotype or phenotype. Chemicals that induce changes in organisms DNA is called mutagens.
Are type 1 Interferon's virus specific?
Type 1 interferons are nonspecific--they nonspecifically inhibit viral infection inside the host cells. Basically what happens is that once a cell gets infected by a virus, they induce the production of these interferons by the cell, they are then secreted into the extracellular fluid to attach onto plasma membrane receptors of other cells including itself, having an autocrine/paracrine function (IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE CELL IS ALREADY INFECTED OR NOT)--in result of these interferons binding on the cells (including itself), it initiates the production of antiviral proteins by the cell, which prevent further replication of a virus.In a nutshell: Viruses induce Type 1 Interferon production which inhibits viral replication in the host cell
How do you induce involuntary urination?
To quickly induce urination, drink coffee or hold hands under running warm to hot water. Try it.
What is an antheridium?
A pheromone that eusporangiate ferns release induce surrounding plants sexual structures to develop. It is a mechanism to induce cross-fertilization.
Which plant hormones induce axial growth in plants?
Auxins
What hormones do doctors give women to induce labor?
Oxytocin
The ability of conductor to induce voltage in itself when the current changes?
The ability of conductor to induce voltage in itself when the current changes is called inductive reactance.
How does active CAP induce expression of the genes of the lactose operon?
It stimulates the binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter.
How does the active CAP induce expression of the genes of the lactose operon?
It stimulates the binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter.
Is it safe to induce labor when its your first pregnancy?
Yes. Most of the medications they use to induce are naturally occurring hormones in a women's body. Being induced shouldn't hinder any future pregnancies.
What does the secretion of stress hormones do?
Stress hormones induce following changes:Mobilize glucose from storage sites to working muscles.Shut down metabolic processes like digestion.Increase heart and breathing rate.Increase blood pressure.
What hormone stimulates lipogenesis?
The following hormones induce lipolysis: epinephrine, norepinephrine, ghrelin, growth hormone, testosterone, and cortisol.
Does temperature have effect on water's phase?
Changes in both temperature and pressure induce phase changes in water (and all other materials!).
Does temperature have no effect on water's phase?
Changes in both temperature and pressure induce phase changes in water (and all other materials!).
How does an enzymes interact with a substance?
Enzymes interact with substrates by binding only with specific substrates. Enzymes will then alter the shape of the substrate in order to induce reaction.
Steroid hormones exert their action by?
steroid hormones can pass easily through the plasma membrane, the hormones then bind to intracellular receptors which induce a metabolic pathway which later promotes transcription of a specific gene.
