Hello!
To answer your question:
The cell membrane's main trait is its selective permeability, which means that it allows some substances to cross it easily, but not others. Small molecules that are nonpolar (have no charge) can cross the membrane easily through diffusion, but ions (charged molecules) and larger molecules typically cannot.
Two examples are:
Charged Ions
An ion is a molecule that is charged because it has lost or gained an electron.
Large Polar Molecules
Large uncharged molecules, such as glucose, also cannot easily permeate the cell membrane.
Hope this helps!

Diploid refers to a cell that has two copies of each chromosome. One way that a diploid organism could have an offspring that are 3n (triploid) or 4n is when the chromosomes don't separate during meiosis.
Triploid refers to some cell that have 3 copies of each chromosomes for a total of 69 chromosomes.
The answer is stabilizing selection.
<span>Sickle-cell anemia is a recessive disorder caused by the presence of two recessive alleles "s", so genotype is "ss". This disorder is characterized by sickle hemoglobin. In an area with malaria, heterozygous individuals "Ss" (with one dominant allele and one recessive allele) have an advantage. These individuals will have both normal and sickle hemoglobin. But pathogen that causes malaria affect only normal hemoglobin, so heterozygous individuals will have half of the hemoglobin resistant to the pathogen and those individuals are resistant to malaria.</span>
Stabilizing selection favors heterozygotes Ss, disruptive selection favors dominant (SS) and recessive (ss) homozygotes, while directional selection favors dominant (SS) or recessive (ss) homozygote. Since in this example, people with genotype Ss (heterozygotes) are in advantage, then this is an example of stabilizing selection.
Answer:
The correct option is D. A reasonable explanation for the change in levels of protein is that the mutation occurs in the promoter of the gene, within several hundred base pairs of the start of transcription.
Explanation:
In genetics, a promoter can be described as a region where the RNA polymerase binds initially and starts transcription. The promoter is usually present near to the gene that has to be transcribed. The rate of transcription is controlled by the promoter region too. Hence, the correct option is D. The promoter region for the eye colour was changed due to mutation.
Other options are false because a change in a codon or base pair would have changed proteins being formed and would not have slowed the process.
<span>If high amounts of sulfanilamide are in the presence of an enzyme whose substrate is paba, then the enzyme would stop functioning since the sulfanilamide inhibits the action of the enzyme. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
