Question
Chapter 27, Problem 27.57P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Do ATP, ADP, AMP and adenosine all have the same receptors on receiving cells. Explain.
Concept Introduction:
The receptors are the protein molecules, which are embedded in the cell membrane or in the organelle membrane. These receptors are important for the recognition of the signaling molecules.
