The correct answer is option B

Diffusion can be defined as the movement of material( particles )from an area of its higher concentration gradient to an area of its lower concentration gradient.

Osmosis can be defined as the movement of solute particles from a region of its higher concentration to lower concentration across a membrane which is semipermeable.

It can be said from the definition osmosis is a kind of diffusion across semipermeable membrane.

Growth factors and cytokines both lead to tyrosine phosphorylation through receptors, but they do so through different mechanism
gladu [14]

Answer:

The growth factor receptors have a kinase domain while the Cytokines receptors do not contain a kinase domain as part of their structure.

Explanation:

The two are signaling molecules that control cell activities in some manners, such paracrine, endocrine and autocrine manners.

The receptor kinase domain can be specific for substrate sites in which phosphorylation occurs.

Two polypeptides, X and Y, have similar tertiary structures. X normally exists as a monomer while Y exists as a tetramer, Y4. Wh
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Due to number of amino acids.

Explanation:

The main differences might be expected in the amino acid composition of X versus Y because the X polypeptide is made up of one smaller unit of amino acid while on the other hand, Y polypeptide is made up of four smaller units of amino acids. The  name of X is monomer which means composed of one amino acids while Y exists as a tetramer which means it has four amino acids. So we can conclude that the main difference between X and Y is the presence of  number of amino acids.
