Is the case when a molecule causes the cell membrane to bulge inward forming a vesicle. Exocytosis Endocytosis Passive transport none of the above?

Endocytosis is the process where a molecule causes the cell membrane to bulge inward, forming a vesicle to bring the molecule inside the cell. This is distinct from exocytosis, which is the process of releasing molecules from a cell by fusing vesicles with the cell membrane and expelling their contents.


What binds to a signal molecule enabling the cell to respond to the signal molecule?

A receptor protein on the cell membrane binds to the signal molecule, initiating a series of intracellular events that lead to a cellular response. The binding of the signal molecule to the receptor triggers a signaling cascade that ultimately activates specific cellular pathways.


Where does the exchange of materials between a cell and its environment take place?

a cell membrane


What molecule causes transcription of an operon?

The molecule that typically causes transcription of an operon is an inducer, which can either activate or repress the operon by binding to a regulatory protein. In the case of an inducible operon like the lac operon in E. coli, lactose acts as an inducer by binding to the repressor protein and preventing it from blocking transcription.


A series of molecules found in the inner membranes of mitochondria and chloroplasts through which electron pass in a process that causes protons to build up on one side of the membrane?

This process is called the electron transport chain. The molecules involved are typically cytochromes and other protein complexes, such as Complexes I, II, III, IV in mitochondria and the cytochrome b6f complex in chloroplasts. As electrons pass through the chain, they help pump protons across the membrane creating an electrochemical gradient that is used to produce ATP through ATP synthase.

Is insulin a neurotransmitter that affects growth?

No. Its a cellular membrane trigger that causes cells to transport sugar across the membrane ( via transport proteins).


How. do carriers proteins transport substances across cell membranes?

Carrier Proteins transport molecules from an area of higher concentration on one side of the membrane to an area of lower concentration on the other side.


What function does ATP serve in mitosis?

Sorry my answer is not too accurate... don't have my bio textbook on me. From memory, ATP phosphorylates the protein that causes active transport. It would give the energy needed for a protein to actively transport the molecule or atom of choice through the pore. Now active transport mitosis? I've never heard of that before. Are you saying that ATP activates a protein (which transfers thing) during mitosis?


What is the name of a surface membrane molecule that causes an immune reaction?

Antigens are surface membrane molecules that cause an immune reaction.


What are the difference of active transport and passive transport?

In passive transport the solute is driven across the cell until both sides of the membrane are equal. In active transport, energy causes the transporter to release the solute to only one side of the membrane.


What are the differ of active transport and passive transport?

In passive transport the solute is driven across the cell until both sides of the membrane are equal. In active transport, energy causes the transporter to release the solute to only one side of the membrane.


What are the different shapes of active and passive transport?

In passive transport the solute is driven across the cell until both sides of the membrane are equal. In active transport, energy causes the transporter to release the solute to only one side of the membrane.

In a protein complex for the light reaction why is energy transferred from pigment molecule to pigment molecule to a special chlorophyll a molecule and eventually to the primary electron acceptor?

Energy is transferred from pigment molecule to pigment molecule in the protein complex through resonance energy transfer, leading to excitation of a special chlorophyll a molecule called P680. This excitation of P680 causes the release of an electron, which is then transferred to the primary electron acceptor, initiating the electron transport chain in photosynthesis.
