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.

Which statement explains why earthquakes tend to be deeper near subduction zones?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option C, At a subduction zone, oceanic crust is forced deep into the Earth.

Explanation:

At sub-duction zone, the dense oceanic plates coincides with the less dense continental plates and thus sink below the continental plates. Sometimes these oceanic plates being dense, sink to greater depth with in the earth’s mantle. The sub-duction zone causes  earth quakes of high intensity when oceanic crust penetrates to greater depths of earth crust as they tend to change the rheology of the earths’ mantle and also causes bending of plates

Hence, option C is correct
