why is signal transduction not associated with ion-gated channels?
Homework Answers
Simply because signal transduction usually requires a receptor-ligand interaction and a cascade of proteins working one after another in a pipeline, like receptor tyrosine kinase signalling , G-protein coupled signalling, whereas ion-gated channels are involved with maintaining membrane potential and alteration of membrane potential is usually/mostly the end result of the signalling cascade.

Which of the following statement(s) regarding gated channels is/are FALSE? Gated channels facilitate the passage of ions such as Cl- and Na+ across the plasma membrane. Gated channels open or close in response to a signal. Gated channels facilitate the passage of small, nonpolar molecules such as O2 across the plasma membrane. Gated channels allow for the passive movement of substances across the plasma membrane in a process called facilitated diffusion. Gated channels facilitate the passage of small, nonpolar molecules...
