I. Explain how one signal can promote different responses in different cells. For example, epinephrine causes the heart to beat faster while causing the liver to release glucose.

II. Describe how epinephrine causes liver cells to hydrolyze glycogen including how the signal is received, the molecules involved in transduction, and the cellular response.

Provide one example of a demand-side policy and explain why and how it causes the aggregate demand to shift. Similarly, for the supply side, you need to explain one of the reasons why some may prefer to use supply-side policies. Provide one example of a supply-side policy and explain why and how it causes the aggregate supply to shift.

Cells can signal to each other in various ways. A signal that must be relayed to the entire body is most efficiently sent by ___________ cells

Cells can signal to each other in various ways. A signal that must be relayed to the entire body is most efficiently sent by ___________ cells, which produce hormones that are carried throughout the body through the bloodstream. On the other hand, ___________ methods of cell signaling do not require the release of a secreted molecule and are used for very localized signaling events. During ____________ signaling, the signal remains in the neighborhood of the secreting cell and thus acts...
