Plants make their own sunscreen. The phenolic compounds in plants ( its a natural chemical) acts as a sunscreen. It absorbs UV rays. Plants also protect themselves using a protein known as UVR8 (short for UV resistance locus 8). Plants that lack UVR8 cannot induce protective sunscreens and are severely damaged by the UV present in summer sunlight.
Answer:
diffusion of the hormone through a target cell membrane
formation of a hormone-receptor complex
activation of a gene
cellular response to the hormone
production of a protein
Explanation:
Steriod hormone are primary hormones derived from lipids. Such as reproductive hormones i.e the testosterone and the estrogens, which are produced by the gonads (testes and ovaries). Steroid hormones are not soluble in water (they are hydrophobic). For a new cell to be activated by a steriod hormone, there are a lot of steps invovled, Steriod hormones must travel to their target cell bound to a transport protein (i.e diffusion of the hormone through a target cell membrane).
Once the hormone binds to the receptor in the targeted cell, a chain of events is initiated that leads to the target cell’s response (I.e formation of a hormone-receptor complex). Hormones plays a vital role in the regulation of physiological processes because of the target cell responses they regulate.
The message a hormone sends is received by a hormone receptor, (a protein located either inside the cell or within the cell membrane). The receptor will process the message by initiating other signaling events such as (activation of a gene) or cellular mechanisms that result in the target cell’s response. Hormone receptors recognize and respond to them (i.e cellular response to the hormone). Thus, the response triggered by a hormone depends not only on the hormone, but also on the target cell.
Once the target cell receives the hormone signal, it can respond in a variety of ways. The response may include the (production of protein synthesis), activation or deactivation of enzymes, alteration in the permeability of the cell membrane, and stimulation of the secretion of products. etc

Marine iguanas experience biggest problem as far as their diet is concerned. this is because 'they feed on sea plant that have high concentration of salts since plants living in this region are poor osmoregulators. in addition, when they are feeding, they may take in water which usually has high salt concentrations. to survive these harsh condition, marine iguana has salt gland located in the nostrils. these glands have several secretory tubules and each of the tubules has an epithelial lining with specialized cells that have the ability to transport salt from the body outside. to perform this function effectively, large amount of energy is required and as a result these cells have high numbers of mitochondria.
It occurs in interphase 1 and condenses in prophase 1. Hope this helps.
