The group of lipids that represents the general structure of most steroids would be provided in option A. Notable ring type of structures that are fused and may or may not display certain functional groups that can provide different functions to this steroid depending on the functional groups present.
Long-term potentiation (LTP) is considered a cellular correlate of learning and memory. The presence of G protein-activated inwardly rectifying K(+) (GIRK) channels near excitatory synapses on dendritic spines suggests their possible involvement in synaptic plasticity. However, whether activity-dependent regulation of channels affects excitatory synaptic plasticity is unknown. In a companion article we have reported activity-dependent regulation of GIRK channel density in cultured hippocampal neurons that requires activity oF receptors (NMDAR) and protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) and takes place within 15 min. In this study, we performed whole-cell recordings of cultured hippocampal neurons and found that NMDAR activation increases basal GIRK current and GIRK channel activation mediated by adenosine A(1) receptors, but not GABA(B) receptors. Given the similar involvement of NMDARs, adenosine receptors, and PP1 in depotentiation of LTP caused by low-frequency stimulation that immediately follows LTP-inducing high-frequency stimulation, we wondered whether NMDAR-induced increase in GIRK channel surface density and current may contribute to the molecular mechanisms underlying this specific depotentiation. Remarkably, GIRK2 null mutation or GIRK channel blockade abolishes depotentiation of LTP, demonstrating that GIRK channels are critical for depotentiation, one form of excitatory synaptic plasticity.

The answer is flagella.
Flagella are tail-like structures which allow some unicellular organisms to move. Although their primary function is in locomotion, they can also serve as sensory organelles that are sensitive to chemicals or temperature of the environment. They can be found in all three domains - bacteria, archaea, and eukaryota:
- Bacterial flagella have a rotary motor at the base of each filament turning clockwise or counterclockwise
- Archaeal flagella look like bacterial flagella.
- Eukaryotic flagella are structurally complex cellular projections.
