Answer:

The type of protein that binds a ligand on the cell surface or within cells are transmembrane receptors. These proteins have 3 domains: an extracellular part that does the binding, a hydrophobic domain that extends through the membrane, and an intracellular region that transmits the signal. The most common membrane-anchored receptors are: G protein-coupled receptors, receptor tyrosine kinases, and ligand-gated ion channels.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

So basically genes are made of DNA molecules. DNA molecules are the building blocks of genes.... if you think about legos for a second the building blocks of legos would be plastic right? because without plastic you don't have legos which is same here... genes are legos and DNA molecules are the plastic that make them (if you get my analogy).

So genes are the information carriers because they carry information on how to make a certain protein or express certain characteristics. Gene directs the cell to make certain proteins and proteins are the key players that are involved in many cellular process because they carry out major functions hence, the protein determine the function of cell because without protein the cell would have no function
