The nucleus in eukaryotes is definite nucleus which is surrounded by by a unit membrane called nuclear membrane which is made of phospholipid bilayer. Whereas, in prokaryotes incipient nucleus is present which is not surrounded by nuclear membrane. Thus, option b. is correct.

The right answers are on the attached image.

Baroreflex is a reflex triggered when a baroreceptor is stimulated. In the human body, baroreceptors are found in the carotid sinuses and the sinus of the aorta. These receptors are stimulated during changes in blood pressure. Baroreceptors are sensitive to the stretching of blood vessels.

As blood pressure rises, baroreceptors transmit nerve impulses to the vasomotor center of the medulla oblongata, which is then inhibited. This results in vasodilatation of the blood vessels to reduce blood pressure.
