Insulin signaling through its receptor kinase enables virtually every cell in our body to transport glucose across the cell membrane into the cytosol. In the next set of questions, select the appropriate event in the cellular response to insulin.   Activated proteins in the nucleus that cause transcription (and eventually translation in the cytosol) of proteins needed for cell division is an example of:

Put the events of blood formation in the correct order in which they occur during development, with #1 occurring earliest. If any of the statements are untrue, write “false” next to it (and do not order it with the rest of the items).

The authors concluded that Wnt signaling and BMP inhibition are not sufficient to induce precocious (ie, early) hair follicle formation. Suggest an experiment that would identify the hair follicle initiating cue that originates in the mesenchyme.
