Cell signaling- Describe the difference between quick vs. slow responses in cell signaling. Make sure you identify which one you are describing AND determine if the NGF pathway (NGF turns on Sprouty transcription) or the GPCR pathway (sperm binds egg to release Ca+) is an example of a quick vs a slow response.

Genomic studies

Genomic studies (genomics) is the study of the whole genome of an organism. Using bioinformatics and high-performance computing, genomic researchers examined massive amounts of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-sequence data to discover variations or mutations that affect drug response, health, or disease. Genomics is a much younger discipline than genetics, having only emerged in the last few decades as a result of technological advancements in DNA sequencing and computational biology.
