Which of the following statements is true of signal molecules?

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

  1. When signal molecules first bind to receptor tyrosine kinases, the receptors phosphorylate a number of nearby molecules.

  2. In response to some G protein-mediated signals, a special type of lipid molecule associated with the plasma membrane is cleaved to form IP3 and calcium.

  3. In most cases, signal molecules interact with the cell at the plasma membrane, enter the cell, and eventually enter the nucleus.

  4. Protein kinase A activation is one possible result of signal molecules binding to G protein coupled receptors.

The relative abundance of C plant species increases with latitude because of the associated temperature gradient. A study in North America found that at  42°  North,  C3  plants  become more  abundant than  C4  plants. Given  an  increase in  mean global  temperatures by  10°C and no  other changes in  environmental conditions,  the latitude at which C3 plants become more abundant:
