Answer: Substances that are protein based cannot cross the lipid cell membrane, but can exert their effect by binding to the proteins based receptors present on the lipid bilayer.
Explanation:
Hormones such as calcitonin , Parathyroid hormone and pituatry horomones are proteins and water soluble.They cannot cross lipid bilayer but can bind to ligand binding protein receptors.
These receptors are protein macromolecules that are specific in nature for specific hormones.
After binding to the receptors, these hormone-recpetor complexes activate second messengers and regulate the downstream effects.
D. Mutations will always impact an individual on some level
Most of these seem accurate or at least close to being accurate on how mutations affect genes however, some mutations won’t always impact an individual because some mutations are so minor. But this is my best guess
The right answser is Chromosomes.
After DNA replication during cell cycle interphase, the chromosomes are composed of two identical chromatids attached at the centromere. Each chromatide is formed of a molecule of DNA (the nucleofilament) associated with proteins, the histones, around which it winds to form nucleosomes. At the ends of each chromatid are telomeres, consisting of repetitive DNA sequences that provide protection for chromosomal endings. Telomeres and centromere do not encode genetic information, it is non-coding DNA.
