Answer:
The neutrophil forms multiple lamellipodia extensions
Explanation:
Neutrophils are white blood cells (granulocytes) which comprise the first line of defense in the innate immune system. The lamellipodium (in plural, lamellipodia) is a cytoskeletal actin extension found in mobile cells, whose main functions are cell motility and migration. Rac1 is a member of the Rho GTPase protein family which is involved in actin-myosin cytoskeletal reorganization of neutrophil cells in response to microorganism infections. In this regard, it has been shown that Rac1 controls the initial uncapping of actin ends in order to regulate cytoskeleton dynamics, thus regulating lamellipodia formation. By using mice as models, researchers observed that Rac1 constitutive activation may lead to the formation of multiple lamellipodia in neutrophils.

Answer:
This is because the receptor is in the interior of the cell
Explanation:
When a specific signaling molecule is added to a cell whose cell surface has been stripped off by proteins the cell still responds because the receptor is in the interior of the cell.
Receptors are divided into two categories which are;
- Intracellular receptors or internal receptors which are found in the cytoplasm or nucleus of the cell. They respond to hydrophobic ligand molecules which are able to travel across the plasma membrane
- Cell surface receptors which are found in the plasma membrane
Signalling molecules are necessary for the coordination of cellular responses by serving as ligands and binding to cell receptors.
A type of signaling molecule are the small hydrophobic ligands which can directly diffuse through the plasma membrane and interact with internal receptors unlike the water soluble ligands. This is why the cell still responds after you strip off all proteins on the cell surface.
NOTE: Nitric oxide (NO) is a gas that also acts as a ligand, therefore it can pass through the plasma membrane of the cell and interact with receptors.
