Answer:

The correct answer is option c. "amygdala".

Explanation:

Amygdala is an almond-shaped structure within the limbic system involved in emotional responses, hormonal secretions, and memory. When a person like Stan experiences a traumatic event during childhood, adrenaline is produced into the body and amygdala memorizes the event. Later, during adulthood a person can experience afraid produced by the traumatic event because amygdala holds the emotional significance of the event. This traumatic response combines all the functions of the amygdala: emotion, hormonal secretion and memory.

Diffusion occurs because of the ________________________ of molecules.
rosijanka [135]
Diffusion occurs because of the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. This movement of molecules occurs due to a thermal motion. Diffusion normally occurs between two compartments having difference in concentration. In case of fluid it moves from the region of higher concentration to the region of concentration until a balance is reached. The process of diffusion is very important for the humans as well. The oxygen that humans breathe in gets diffused with the blood.

How a change in glycoproteins affects a cell’s ability to maintain homeostasis
Licemer1 [7]

Explanation:

Most of the cell surface receptors and glycoproteins. These glycoproteins have active sites that recognize specific signals, like hormones, that initiate secondary signaling pathways inside of the cell, in response to the external signal. This is how cells respond to environmental stimuli.

If a change in glycoproteins makes them unable to bind signaling molecules (like hormones) or makes them permanently bind these molecules, there will definitely be a defect in how the cell responds to external stimuli.  The cell will be, for example, be unable to respond to insulin in case of elevated blood sugar levels as is the case with diabetics.
