chapter 25: endocrine and immune systems: testing the iceman
page(s) 495-496 25.2. describe how a hormone can act on a target cell.
put the following hormonal signal amplification events in order.
start by choosing the first item in the sequence and clicking, dragging, or using your keyboard to select it.
proteins affect a change in cell function.
mrna molecules are translated to thousands of proteins.
gene is transcribed to hundreds of mrna molecules.
hormone binds to receptor.

Explanation:

Hormonal signal amplification starts with hormone-receptor binding, leading to gene transcription, mRNA translation, and finally protein-mediated cell function change.

Answer:

1. Hormone binds to receptor.
2. Gene is transcribed to hundreds of mRNA molecules.
3. mRNA molecules are translated to thousands of proteins.
4. Proteins affect a change in cell function.
