The right answer is C. sex cells.

Like all cells, a somatic cell can mutate.

* A somatic mutation, if it is "viable" (if it does not kill the cell, organ or organism that carries it), and if it is not controlled by the body (apoptosis, confinement of the mutated cell) can give rise to new identical cell lines, thus carrying the same mutation.

* In so-called evolved animals (which can not clone naturally), this mutation affects only the organ or the organism concerned, but will not be transmitted to the offspring of the individual.

A cell membrane has consists of phospholipids. They are lipids with a phosphate group such as (PO3/4). They are hydrophilic meaning that they allow water to pass through proteins well some at least- but it might be needed to move molecules throughnthe membrane as well. But basically it's just a composed bilayer of phospholipids with hydrophobic acid tails so that they could all meet with one another. The form complexes into function to describe or to identify the cells to anothers cells.

Hope this helps.
