The best answer is D.
Hormones are chemical messengers secreted mostly into blood and also extracellular fluid by specialized tissue of the endocrine system and affect the functioning of other tissues or cells.
Most hormones circulate in blood and come in contact with essentially all cells, but a particular hormone will only affect a limited number of cells, which are termed as target cells to that hormone.
A target cell responds to a particular hormone because it bears receptors for that hormone.
For example the red blood cells have receptors for the hormone called insulin which is produced by the pancreas. The red cells are able to take in glucose when their receptors bind to insulin.
Ileostomy is a procedure where the end of the small intestine, called the ileum, is brought out of an opening in the belly through surgery. The opening is called a stoma, and its shiny, bright red in color. It is often done after the large intestine has been removed due to cancer or serious physical injuries. Having a stoma, and the need of emptying it several times a day, is disfiguring so the patient often suffer from poor self image. The patient in the case, may be concerned of being unable to continue romantic relationships due to having a stoma. As a nurse, make sure to first make patient understand that ileostomy surgery does not involve the reproductive organs or the gonads. Then, acknowledge that while having a stoma is disfiguring, many organizations are helping increase awareness and acceptance of those who have the condition. Refer the patient to such local stoma advocacy organizations.
Answer:
derived trait
Explanation:
An ancestral (or primitive) trait/character is a feature inherited from the common ancestor of the species/group of interest, while derived traits are those that were absent in the last common ancestor of the group of interest. For example, considering mammals as the target group, the presence of hair is a shared derived trait relative to other vertebrates, i.e., amphibians, reptiles and birds. However, this trait (hair) is ancestral for humans since the genetically closest species to humans (e.g., chimpanzees), also have hair, and they have inherited this trait from a common ancestor.

<h3>What is
b-vitamin?</h3>
B vitamins are a group of water-soluble vitamins that are crucial for red blood cell production and cell metabolism. Despite having names that sound similar (B1, B2, B3, etc.), these vitamins are chemically different substances that frequently coexist in the same foods. Dietary supplements that include all eight are typically referred to as vitamin B complexes. The exact number or name of each vitamin, such as B1 for thiamine, B2 for riboflavin, and B3 for niacin, is used to identify individual B vitamin supplements. Some substances, like pantothenic acid, biotin, and folate, are better known by their names than by their chemical names.
Each B vitamin either functions as a cofactor (usually a coenzyme) for important metabolic processes or functions as a precursor required to produce one.
