ASSURED FOR DISTINCTION MARKS
Chemicals secreted by cells (correct answer)hormones
neurotransmitters
cytokines
Three Methods of Communication between cells (correct answer)Gap
junction
chemical secretion
Remote Signaling
remote signaling (correct answer)chemicals secreted can travel near or
far to a specific cell
chemical secretion (correct answer)cells secrete chemicals into the
bloodstream
gap junction (correct answer)A type of intercellular junction in animals
that allows the passage of materials between cells.
, signal transduction (correct answer)A series of molecular changes that
converts a signal on a target cell's surface to a specific response inside
the cell.
cellular metabolism (correct answer)all of the chemical reactions that are
part of maintaining cellular function
Anabolism (correct answer)Metabolic pathways that construct
molecules, requiring energy.
catabolism (correct answer)Metabolic pathways that break down
molecules, releasing energy.
anaerobic metabolism (correct answer)The metabolism that takes place
in the absence of oxygen; the principle product is lactic acid.
aerobic metabolism (correct answer)The cellular process in which
oxygen is used to metabolize glucose. Energy is produced in an efficient
manner with minimal waste products.
leukotrines (correct answer)mediator of degranulation that tend to cause
prolonged contractions of certain smooth muscles and their action
contributes to the spasms of the bronchial tubes that occur during asthma
attacks
