When describing the events of cell signalling, indicate whether the following statements are true or false. Question 5 (0.25 points) The signal transduction pathway often ends with activation of transcription factors for gene expression. True False Question 6 (0.25 points) When cAMP is produced by adenylyl cyclase, it contributes to the amplification of the signal. True False Question 7 (0.25 points) The actions of protein phosphatases allow the continuation of the signal transduction pathway after the signal has been removed. True False Question 8 (0.25 points) Enzymatic steps (i.e., kinases) of the signal transduction pathway allow for the signal to be amplified. True False
