To design a drug that inhibits metastasis, which of the following strategies is the WORST idea? to disrupt cadherin complexes to inhibit Rho family proteins to inhibit ARP complex O to block myosin-based contractile structure
Many common medications function by interrupting the normal operation of certain signal transduction pathways. Which of the following describes a possible mechanism by which a certain medication may interrupt a signal transduction pathway? A A medication enters the target cell and triggers apoptosis by causing the release of di- gestive enzymes from cell lysosomes. B A medication interacts with the phospholipid bi-layer of the cell membrane and in- creases its permeability. с D A medication binds to membrane-bound glucose proteins and acts as an allosteric in- hibitor that prevents the intake of glucose by the cell. A medication diffuses through the membrane of a target cell and inhibits an enzyme that normally synthesizes a second messenger.

C Tau is hyper-phosphorylated and does not bind to microtubules to stabilize them. D Microtubules are hyper-phosphorylated and do not bind to Tau.

WRITE ABOUT A THEME: ORGANIZATION The properties oflife emerge at the biological level of the cell. The highly regulated process of apoptosis is not simply the destruction of acell; it is also an emergent property. Write a short essay (about100–150 words) that briefly explains the role of apoptosis inthe development and proper functioning of an animal, and describe how this form of programmed cell death is a process thatemerges from the orderly integration of signaling pathways.

In Model 1, if the length of the arrow represents time, then for those cancerous cells, what hap pens to the time that is necessary for the cell cycle? What implication might this have for doctors who are treating cancer patients? Why? Living things must grow and develop. At times they suffer injuries or damage, or cells simply wear out. New cells must be formed for the organism to survive. What process must occur to make a new, properly- functioning cell?
