What is one of the possible cellular responses following activation of the MAP kinase pathway?
A)the formation of second messengers in the cytosol
B)a change in gene expression resulting in cell division
C)the activation of adenylyl cyclase
D)both the activation of adenylyl cyclase and the formation of second messengers

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Activation of the MAP kinase pathway can lead to changes in gene expression, which can result in cell division or other cellular responses. Option A is incorrect, as the formation of second messengers is typically associated with other signaling pathways such as cyclic AMP or inositol triphosphate. Option C and D are also incorrect, as the MAP kinase pathway does not directly activate adenylyl cyclase or formation of second messengers.
