In a scenario where both stimulatory and inhibitory GPCR pathways are active, what is the expected outcome on adenylate cyclase activity?

• A. Adenylate cyclase activity will be unaffected, producing a constant amount of cAMP.
• B. Adenylate cyclase activity will be maximized, producing the highest amount of cAMP.
• C. Adenylate cyclase activity will be balanced, producing an appropriate amount of cAMP.
• D. Adenylate cyclase activity will be minimized, producing the lowest amount of cAMP.

Answer: (C)
