B)membrane-bound receptor model

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The involvement of cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP points towards a membrane-bound receptor model, as these molecules are second messengers that are generated in response to extracellular signaling and then transmit the signal across the plasma membrane to activate intracellular signaling pathways. In contrast, nuclear receptor models involve the activation of gene expression through the binding of ligands to nuclear receptors within the cell.
