Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equation that describes how activated raf transmits the signal in this pathway is "Inactive enzyme + ATP -> active phosphorylated enzyme + ADP". This is because raf is a protein kinase and its activation involves the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to raf, leading to a change in its conformation and activity. Therefore, the correct choice is C.
