 The dissociation constant (Kd) of a receptor is: 

BIOCHEMISTRY basic 

  • the concentration of a ligand that produces 100% occupancy of the receptor 
  • the concentration of a ligand that produces 50% of the maximal effect. 
  • the measurement of specificity between ligand and its receptor. 
  • the measurement of speed by which a ligand will dissociate from its receptor. 
  • the measurement of affinity between a ligand and its receptor and the inverse of the association constant. 

 

During an experiment with Drosophila, it was discovered that all females had red eyes. unlike males. A conclusion based on this observation would be:

MOLECULAR BIOLOGY basic 

  • The gene for eye color is located on the X chromosome.
  • The females are homozygotes
  • The gene for eye color is dominant.
  • The eye color results from multigenic linkage.
  • The eye color phenotype is sex-linked 

 

A secondary lysosome:

CELL BIOLOGY advanced 

  • a lysosome that provides a backup to the primary lysosomes 
  • a lysosome that is smaller than a primary lysosome 
  • a lysosome that will become a primary lysosome when it fuses with a phagosome 
  • a primary lysosome that has fused with a phagosome. 
  • a lysosome that has exocytosed.
