1
Q
What role does the environment play in eliciting cellular responses?
A
Changes in the environment bring about different cellular responses to ensure survival
2
Q
How are signal transduction pathways used to influence cellular responses when there are changes in the environment?
A
3
Q
What may signal transducrion lead to?
A
- Changes in gene expression
- Changes in cell function
It can alter gene expression, which eventually alters the phenotype expr
4
