Answer:

(A). proteins.

Explanation:

Plasma membrane exhibits selectively permeable nature as it allows transport of certain molecules only.  

It is because of the hydrophobic nature of plasma membrane due to hydrophobic tails of lipid molecules that allows transport of small, uncharged, non-polar molecules, while large, charged or polar molecule cannot pass through the membrane.

These large, charged molecules are transported through the membrane by membrane transport proteins, which are embedded in lipid bilayer. An  example of membrane transport protein is sodium-potassium pump that transport sodium and potassium ions across the membrane.

Thus, the correct answer is (A).

If a mammal gives birth to live animals, how is a monotreme a mammal if it lays eggs? This has been confusing me for the past 30
natka813 [3]

Answer:

In some ways, monotremes are very primitive for mammals because, like reptiles and birds, they lay eggs rather than having live birth. In a number of other respects, monotremes are rather derived, having highly modified snouts or beaks, and modern adult monotremes have no teeth.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

B) Multicellular Simple gland

Explanation:

Exocrine Glands:Glands that secrete their products onto the apical(or epithelia) surface directly or via epithelial ducts or tubes that are connected to the apical surface. These Exocrine glands are composed of highly specialized epithelial cells..

Exocrine glands can either be branched or Unbranched based on the arrangement.

*Multicellular simple glands*:Glands that have an *unbranched duct* into which cells secrete. Each secretory portion empties separately on an epithelial surface.

How does the greenhouse effect adjust the temperature of the atmosphere?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Since the industrial revolution, human activities have also resulted in an increase in natural greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide. An increase in these gases in the atmosphere enhances the atmosphere's ability to trap heat, which leads to an increase in the average surface temperature of the Earth.
