Dozens of tower cranes dot DC's skyline, and so many of them are building new high-rise apartments that the District now ranks ninth among US cities with the most housing units under construction. It sure looks like a lot of new housing supply is being built, and certainly plenty of new luxury apartments within the District. However, the downtown high-rises under construction only tell half the story of Greater Washington's housing growth story.
While all those cranes are easy to see from afar, what isn't immediately apparent from the airport (but might be from a plane) is that many fewer acres of the countryside around us are being bulldozed for subdivisions–which for the past century has been where most lower-cost, low-rise housing was built. As a result, the region as a whole isn't building enough housing for our rising population.
Reducing sprawl is good, but we haven't built enough housing in city cores to meet demand
Fewer than half as many single-family houses are being built at the suburban fringes of Greater Washington every year, compared to the region's long-range average. Taken together, the single-family houses that aren't being built around Greater Washington each year would cover four square miles–an area the size of Rock Creek Park. The slower pace of suburban development over the past ten years has meant tens of thousands of acres of farms and forests around our region haven't been bulldozed for subdivisions and strip malls.
Answer:
Do to rotatio the globe goes through wint cause it rota tur away from the sun meanin it gets cold the more you turn away and the more you tur towa it the more warmer it gets , kinda like a stove ... the close you hand gets to the hot stove the hotter it gets the more you pull your had away the colder it gets :) ,
Just to make sure ima copy a little from goggle to see if i can help you clearify anything so yea ..
The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth's rotational axis away or toward the sun as it travels through its year-long path around the sun. The Earth has a tilt of 23.5 degrees relative to the "ecliptic plane" (the imaginary surface formed by it's almost-cicular path around the sun). From goggle just so I don’t get reported for copyin I’m just trying to help

Explanation:
Answer: Option C (receptor)
Explanation:
The membrane protein serves as a receptor which binds to the endogenous ligand (a chemical or ion messenger) on the cell membrane triggering the opening of the cell membrane for onward passage of signals or ions into the cell. This process is called signal transduction.
The summary of functions of the membrane protein is to send the signal onward, increases the effect of a single chemical messenger (ligand), and synthesize the signal into another biochemical process.
