1. Large family of structurally related, secreted, dimeric proteins that act as hormones and local mediators to control a wide range of biological functions in all animals.	A. Rho
2. Cell-surface receptor in which the cytoplasmic domain either has enzymatic activity itself or is associated with an intracellular enzyme.	B. TOR pathway
3. A crucial signaling protein in the PI-3-kinase–Akt signaling pathway, so named because it is the target of rapamycin.	C. Enzyme-coupled receptor
4. A kinase that is involved in intracellular signaling pathways activated by cell-surface receptors and that phosphorylates inositol phospholipids at the 3 position of the inositol ring.	D. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase
5. A group of monomeric GTPases that regulate both the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons.	E. (TGFβ) superfamily
6. Cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase present at cell–matrix junctions in association with the cytoplasmic tails of integrins.	F. Focal Adhesion Kinase

The next diagram shows two lung units (S and T) with their blood supplies. Lung unit S has an ideal relationship between blood flow and ventilation. Lung unit T has a comprised blood flow. What is the relationship between alveolar dead space (DALV), physiologic dead space (DPHY) and anatomic dead space (DANAT) for these lung units?
