Answer:

a. pass readily through a membrane's lipid bilayer

Explanation:

Molecules or substances move to and fro the cell via the cell membrane, which is selectively permeable i.e. controls the passage of molecules in and out the cell.

Small, non-polar hydrophobic molecules such as fatty acids will not be repelled by lipid-containing cell membrane, hence, enters the cell via SIMPLE DIFFUSION. This means that they pass readily through a membrane's lipid bilayer without aid. Fatty acids are able to do this because they are a class of lipids and are soluble in lipid layer of the cell membrane.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Allergens differ from antigens because *they do no stimulate the immune system resulting in the production of leukocytes rather than the stmulate the IgE antibodies*

Explanation:

Allergen and antigen are both foreign substances that can cause certain disorders to animals, but there is some difference between them in terms of their nature and the diseases caused by them. An allergen is a nonparasitic foreign substance that can cause certain immune reactions in the body when it enters the body.  Whereas, an antigen is a foreign substance that can trigger the immune system to produce a specific immune response. This immune response leads to produce antibodies that can neutralize or destroy the foreign substances that entered the body.

Allergens can produce Systemic Allergic Response. Allergens stimulate the IgE antibodies by binding to them on the mast cells and causing the mast cells to rupture and release histamine, serotonin, and heparin, initiating inflammatory response.

Which term refers to a segment of DNA that produces a protein that forms the building blocks of our body?
NISA [10]

The best choice is A.

A gene is a specific sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that is located usually on a chromosome and that specifies the structure of a particular polypeptide and especially a protein, or controls the function of other genetic material.

Information from the gene is copied (transcribed) on mRNA in the nucleus. mRNA then leaves the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm where it attaches to a ribosome. The information on the attached  mRNA is  decoded (translated) by tRNA  which then fetches the amino acids according to this information and brings them to the ribosome where they are linked together to form the specified protein.
