Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the three parts of signal transduction pathway?
A
reception, transduction, response
B
reception, amplification, transcription
C
confirmation, transduction, transcription
D
confirmation, amplification, response
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The signal transduction process links the signal molecule and the receptor protein to bring about a cellular response. 2. What are the 3 steps of signal transduction? Reception, Transduction, and Response are the three steps in the process of signal transduction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Signal transduction pathway consists of protein kinases and protein phosphatases whose catalytic actions change the conformations, and thus the activities, of the proteins they modify. Any environmental or intracellular input, which initiates one or more responses in the cell/plant, is referred as a signal.

Detailed explanation-3: -Signals are classified into the following categories: Continuous Time and Discrete Time Signals. Deterministic and Non-deterministic Signals. Even and Odd Signals.

Detailed explanation-4: -The three stages of cell communication (reception, transduction, and response) and how changes couls alter cellular responses. How a receptor protein recognizes signal molecules and starts transduction.
