Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- arteries→capillaries→veins

Explanation:

The circulation of blood in the closed circulatory system flows through blood vessels. These blood vessels show structural differences in response to the pressure exerted by the blood on the surrounding medium.

The blood pressure varies in the circulatory system because the heart pumps the blood with a greater force, so the blood vessel called arteries which carries the blood from the heart posses thicker walls.

The blood pressure reduces until the blood reaches the organs, the blood pressure reduces. Thus the blood in the capillaries has lower pressure.

When blood exits from the organs back to the heart, then the blood pressure is highly reduced as a result, the veins carry the blood with lower pressure.

Thus, arteries→capillaries→veins are the correct answer.

Explanation:

Animal cells have several types of proteins embedded in their cell membrane. These proteins play an important role in the transport of molecules, cell recognition, and cell communication.  

Recognition proteins are a type of glycoproteins present in the plasma membrane that allow one cell of the body to recognize the other body cells by making contact with recognition proteins of other cells. Receptors proteins allow cell-cell communication by receiving extracellular proteins.

These proteins are important for proper growth and development of the cell. Therefore the correct answer is D.  involves proteins in plasma membranes.
