Answer:
The correct option is A. Steroid hormones exert their action by entering the nucleus of a cell and initiating or altering the expression of a gene.
Explanation:
Steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol and regulate multiple biological processes. All steroid hormones exert their action by crossing the plasma membrane and by binding with their respective intracellular receptors. They stimulate cell growth in a very different way, their lipophilic nature gives them the ability to cross lipid barriers, so, without the need for extracellular signals, these hormones can easily enter the cell, cross the cytoplasm and reach the nucleus. There they bind to specific receptors that are associated with DNA promoter regions, modifying their structure and promoting the expression of the genes under their control.

Answer:
The correct answer will be option-B (purine).
Explanation:
Nucleic acid structure is made up of monomer unit called nucleotide. Each nucleotide is composed of a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate group and five types of nitrogenous bases.
The nitrogenous bases are categorized in two forms the purines (adenine and guanine ) and the pyrimidines (cytosine, thymine and uracil). The "purines" contain double rings in their structure due to which they appear larger in size than pyrimidines which are made up of single rings.
Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
Answer:
D) Rare-earth elements
Explanation:
Rare-earth elements are elements that are highly limited in supply, may be depleted (used up) within a short time, and are difficult to replenish. Examples include neodymium, samarium, and yttrium.
Paper can be replenished by recycling old papers, while solar energy and water are renewable energy sources because we can not use them up within the foreseeable future.
One of the daughter cell would have an extra chromosome while the other would be short one. It's called nondisjunction
