Identify whether the statement is true or false, and why. "each type of receptor protein is specific to a certain signal or type of signal." a. true b. false, it should read "receptor proteins can receive signals from many types of signal molecules." c. false, it should read "receptor proteins are only used in synapses to receive neurotransmitters." d. false, it should read "receptor proteins are universal and can receive signals from any type of signal molecules."

A. True

Explanation: Cell receptors are proteins that receive  signals and trigger a signal cascade for the cell can respond. There's many types of  receptors, depend of their location and their enzymatic activity, and each type can recognize  certain  signals. For example, tyrosine-kinase receptors can recognize growth factors, JAK associated receptors can recognize cytokines, etc. That specificity is given by the structure of the receptor and the structure of the signal.

meiosis is the correct answer

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
