#Question id: 1200


Glucagon binds to the glucagon receptor, which interacts with a membrane-bound G protein, whose α subunit releases GDP and binds GTP. The α subunit then dissociates from the G protein and diffuses to a membrane-bound adenylyl cyclase which produces cAMP. In this scenario, name the

(1) transducer,

(2) effector,

(3) first messenger, and

(4) second messenger.
