The right answer is D.

The absorption of molecules at the level of the skin is carried out by passive diffusion for the molecules of low molecular weight (lower than 400 Da), the skin being covered with a lipoprotein film rich in water by its stratum corneum, rendering it little-permeable.

This absorption may be variable according to factors related to the skin such as stratum corneum's thickness, the state of hydration, the presence of cutaneous lesions or individual variations.

External factors may also modulate percutaneous absorption such as contact time, iontophoresis or the presence of specific adjuvants.

Why is the genetic makeup of the daughter cells formed in meiosis different from the parent cell?
sineoko [7]

Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. ... These new combinations result from the exchange of DNA between paired chromosomes. Such exchange means that the gametes produced through meiosis exhibit an amazing range of genetic variation.
