This is the best model of cell processes of small molecules easily passing between the phospholipids in the cell membrane.

So, the correct option is B.

Semi-permeable indicates that certain materials can pass through the cell membrane. Similar to how small molecules can easily pass between the phospholipids in the cell membrane and the holes in the tea bag that allow smaller particles to pass. The phospholipid membrane found in a cell is semi-permeable and composed of lipid bilayers.

A lipid bilayer and some intrinsic and extrinsic proteins are present in the cell membrane or plasma membrane, in accordance with the fluid-mosaic model. It makes it possible for tiny molecules to move freely across the phospholipids in the cell membrane. Due to its ability to regulate what entered and exited, the tea bag's membrane functioned like a cell membrane.

Flu vaccines need to be revised and changed every year because the flu virus constantly mutates. Flu viruses can change in two ways: drift or shift. Antigenic drift occurs when genes of the virus slowly change during replication until the immune system no longer recognizes it. On the other hand, antigenic shift occurs when a major change in the virus happens. This usually leads to a totally different kind of virus. This is what happened during the H1N1 scare in 2009.

DNA viruses like mumps are less prone to mutation due to the presence of DNA polymerase. RNA viruses are more prone to mutation because they undergo reverse transcription to simulate the role of DNA.
