7 0

The correct answer is D. Both A and C

Explanation:

In biology, a phenotype refers to a trait or characteristic that is observable in an organism, including physical characteristics, physiological characteristics, and behavioral characteristics. The phenotype is the result of the expression of genes or environmental factors. Considering this, both "a certain duck has a blue beak" and "most cheetahs live solitary lives" are phenotypes because they are traits that can be observed in terms of morphology or physical characteristics in the case of the duck or in terms of behavior in the case of the cheetah. On the other hand, a mutation is not necessarily a phenotype except if it is expressed.

Answer;

-Endocytosis

Explanation;

-Endocytosis includes; phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor mediated: Endocytosis brings substances into the cell, plasma membrane surrounds the substances to be taken in, encloses them in a membrane-bound sac (vesicle) and brings them into the cell

-Phagocytosis: endocytosis of large solid particles (“cell eating”)

-Pinocytosis: endocytosis of extracellular fluid that contains dissolved solutes (“cell drinking”)

-Receptor-mediated: highly selective, ligands bind to specific receptor proteins on the plasma membrane and are then taken into the cell

-Exocytosis: the reverse of endocytosis: substances are removed from the cell; vesicles fuse with plasma membrane and release their contents into the extracellular fluid; important in nerve cells to release neurotransmitter and secretory cells to release cell products (ex. digestive enzymes, protein hormones).
