Answer: A>Greenhouse gases interact with infrared photons and reflect them back to Earth’s surface.

Explanation:

The earth naturally maintains the heat energy balance by absorbing a sufficient amount of sunlight energy by the terrestrial land and then reverting back the excess sunlight energy back to the space. The increase in abundance of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere results in absorption of sunlight energy which contains infrared photons this is responsible for increasing the global temperature levels hence, responsible for global warming. These infrared photons are reflected to the earth surface instead of sending back to the space. This is responsible for disturbing the heat balance.

Why are plastics hazardous to wildlife?
topjm [15]
In marine environment, many animals confuse the plastic littering the oceans for food including sea turtles. Once in these animal bodies the plastic accumulates, and the chemicals can cause excess estrogen to be produced, which has led to discoveries of male fish with female sex organs. For sea turtles, the plastic blocks their digestive tract and the food that is trapped releases gases that render them buoyant, and unable to dive for food. The turtle was slowly starving because a single use plastic bag, which she had eaten, was blocking her digestive tract.

The plastic contains destructible and harmful agents that is not good for human and animals health.

mixas84 [53]

The acidic environment of the lysosome and the lysosomal enzymes detach the ligands from their receptors.

Receptor-mediated endocytosis is a process in which cell surface receptors are employed for transporting substances such as proteins, hormones, and metabolites from extra-cellular matrix into the cells. Receptor-mediated endocytosis usually occurs through clathrin (a type of protein)-coated pits and vesicle and it allow only the receptor-specific substances to enter the cell. Under this process, molecule binds to protein receptors after which the receptor molecule moves to clathrin coated pits and vesicle. The cell membrane then folds inwards and there is fusion of a coated vesicle. After this, the ligands are detached from their receptors.
