Answer:

Internal receptor: Internal receptors present on the cytoplasm, and also known as cytoplasmic or intracellular receptor. These Internal receptors respond to hydrophobic ligand molecules which can travel across the plasma membrane. These receptors can influence (directly) the gene expression means how much a specific protein is produced from a gene without having to pass the signal on the other receptor.

Cell-surface receptor: cell-surface receptor is present on the cell membrane is known as trans-membrane receptors. This trans-membrane receptor binds to external ligand molecules which cannot travel across the cell membrane. They are also called cell-specific proteins because they are specific to individual cell type. The cell-surface receptor has 3 main components:

1) External ligand-binding domain.

2) Hydrophobic membrane-spanning region.

3) Intracellular domain.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The protein specific sequence also known as the primary sequence is determined by the sequence of its amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. The sequences of amino acids determine the proteins that will eventually be synthesized. This proteins becomes functional when correct folding pattern/ native conformation of the protein occurs which determines the shape of the proteins. peptide bonds hold the amino acid sequences together, hydrogen bonds involving components of the peptide bonds allow for the existence of the secondary structure either the alpha helix or the beta pleated sheets and then disulphide bonds and other type of bonds helps in the folding of the protein to become a functional protein.

finlep [7]

Answer:

The correct answers would be options 3 and 4.

Natural selection refers to a natural phenomenon by which organisms with survival traits tend to survive and reproduce more as compared to the organisms which lack such traits.

Due to this differential reproduction, survival traits tend to pass on to the offsprings and over several generations the phenotypic frequency of the population changes.
