Answer:

n order to function, cells are required to move materials in and out of their cytoplasm via their cell membranes. These membranes are semipermeable, meaning that certain molecules are allowed to pass through, but not others. This movement of molecules is mediated by the phospholipid bilayer and its embedded proteins, some of which act as transport channels for molecules that otherwise would not be able to pass through the membrane, such as ions and carbohydrates.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

a. Developing cells may express different parts of their identical genetic instructions.

Explanation:

Humans are multicellular organisms i.e. we possess many cells in our body. These cells increase as a result of division. Although all of the cells of humans develop from one fertilized egg (zygote), the human is born with many different types of cells because of a process called CELL DIFFERENTIATION.

Cell differentiation is a process in multicellular organisms where a cell becomes more specialized in function as it divides. The set of genes contained in each cell are not expressed simultaneously i.e. some genes are expressed while others are repressed. This is how cells with the same gene possess different functions. Therefore, according to this question, developing cells may express different parts of their identical genetic instructions to be of different types.

Which list best represents the flow of stimuli information in the body? stimuli receiver, sensory neuron, central nervous system
Elodia [21]
The first part is the stimuli receiver, such as the retina of an eye. Then the information goes to the sensory neuron, which is connected to the stimuli receiver.
Then the information goes to the central nervous system- the brain!

The brain then sends the information to the motor neuron, which sends it to the muscle (the first option is the correct one)
