Answer:

d. dynamic receptor proteins

Explanation:

In the skin there are several receptor cells that can pick up various stimuli such as temperature, pressure and pain. They can be classified into mechanoreceptor, thermoreceptor and pain receptor cells.  When we are dealing with mechanical stimuli like pressure, mechanoreceptors respond to stimuli by sending the signal to the brain.

Light touches on the skin are received by nerve endings called Meissner corpuscles and Merkel discs. Already more intense pressures (such as a handshake) are received by receptors called Pacini corpuscles.

In the nucleus, __________ tell cells what to do and how to change.
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The nucleus regulates the synthesis of proteins in the cytoplasm through the use of messenger RNA (mRNA). Messenger RNA is a transcribed DNA segment that serves as a template for protein production. It is produced in the nucleus and travels to the cytoplasm through the nuclear pores of the nuclear envelope, which you'll read about below. Once in the cytoplasm, ribosomes and another RNA molecule called transfer RNA work together to translate mRNA in order to produce proteins.
