Document Summary

Reduction and carbohydrate production: add electrons and nadph & atp as reactants, generates carbohydrate intermediates. Regeneration of ribulose bisphosphate: convert the 3 carbon intermediate back into ribulose bisphosphate. Chapter 9 answers: the process by which cells can detect and respond to certain signals in the extracellular environment. Within multicellular organisms it helps coordinate organism-wide processes: anything that can influence the properties of cells. Autocrine: signaling molecule is excreted from the signaling cell and binds to the receptors on the target cell. Paracrine: signaling molecule is secreted by signaling cell and binds to receptors on neighboring (close by) cell but does not affect the target cell. Endocrine: signaling cell is far away from the target cell and uses some sort of transporting system to move the signals around: receptor activation: signal binds to receptor and promotes a conformational change. Signal transduction: conformational change leads to a series of changes for the proteins living inside the cell.
