Which of the following sequences is correct?
A) binding of a signaling molecule to its receptor → G protein activation → adenylyl
cyclase activation → cAMP production → protein phosphorylation
B) binding of a signaling molecule to its receptor → G protein activation →
phospholipase C activation → IP3 production → increase in cytoplasmic calcium
concentration
C) diffusion of a signaling molecule across the plasma membrane → binding of the
signaling molecule to its receptor → movement of the signaling molecule-receptor
complex into the nucleus → transcription
D) binding of a growth factor to its receptor → phosphorylation cascade → activation
of transcription factor → transcription
E) All of the choices are correct.

A. Processing of fat does not require any digestive enzymes, whereas the processing
of carbohydrates does
B. Fats, but not carbohydrates, are digested by bacteria before aborsption
