To identify the host cell that has taken up the gene of interest
The correct answer is d: a
target cell's response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways.
The response of a cell to a hormone depends on the cell’s receptor and a signal transduction. When a peptide hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane, a second messenger is activated in the cytoplasm. The second messenger has a role of triggering signal transduction leading to the cellular response. Lots of different signal transduction processes (for example, different intracellular proteins) are used to coordinate the behaviour of target cells.

Since it has 4 protons, it must have an atomic number of 4. (That makes it beryllium.)
Since it has a 4 protons and 5 neutrons, it has a mass number of 9.
