Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is the presence of a specific hormone receptor.</em></u>

Explanation:

Every cell membrane contains certain cell surface receptors which detect an extracellular molecule and allow it to perform function inside that particular cell. The cell surface receptors receive and transmit signals.

For a specific hormone to function inside a particular cell, the cell must possess a specific hormone receptor embedded in the plasma membrane which will detect the hormone and allow it to function inside the cell.

Snowcat [4.5K]

The statement that the integument is strictly composed of the skin and It does not include the various accessory structures that may be present on or beneath the skin layers is False.

<h3>Composition of integument</h3>
  • Together with the underlying epidermal cells that secrete the cuticle, the cuticle and integument make up the skin.
  • The cuticle functions as the insect's exoskeleton, the location of muscle attachment, and the first line of protection against fungi, bacteria, predators, parasites, and environmental toxins, including pesticides.
  • The integument plays a role in behavior, osmoregulation, water control, eating, excretion, desiccation resistance, and as a food reserve.
  • The complexity of the structure and chemistry of an insect's integument as well as the unique ways in which it has been modified to work within its owner's environment serve as some indicators of the variety of roles that these coverings play.
