Answer:

The correct answer is a. messenger RNA

Explanation:

The plasma membrane mainly contains lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. Phospholipids make the bilayer of the plasma membrane. Carbohydrates can be found attached to proteins and lipids.  

The carbohydrates that are attached to lipids are called phospholipids and those with proteins are called glycoproteins. mRNA is the molecule which is not the part of the plasma membrane. mRNA is produced in the nucleus through the transcription process and is responsible for proteins formation.

So phospholipids, glycolipids, and glycoproteins are the part of the plasma membrane but not messenger RNA.

Answer: Messenger RNA  

Explanation:

The main component of the cell membrane are made of cholesterol and phospholipids. Carbohydrates might also be one of the components of plasma membrane.

A phopholipids is a lipid bylayer which is made of glycerol,phosphate linked head group and two fatty acid tails and a  

Messenger RNA is not a component of the plasma membrane.

It is a semipermeable in nature because of its constituents.

What do you think the term gene expression means? How do you think the term relates to the total number of genes a human inherit
Gnesinka [82]

The process by through which the instructions that are present in a DNA is transformed into proteins is called gene expression.

The term is related to to the total number of genes that are inherited from the parents in such a way that a gene contains many information related to the building of proteins and hormones that are necessary for the human growth.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The term Gene expression refers to the transfer of the DNA instructions into proteins. It is the main process that helps a human body responding to the varying environment. It is the main factor that controls and regulates the amount proteins production. The steps transcription and translation is involved in the protein production process

The traits from the parents of an individual like blood group type, color of eye are passed to their children. These are passed through genes. These also passes some diseases also. A gene contains information related to the amount of hormones and proteins to be produced which is done by the gene expression.
