Answer:
The correct answers are option A. "tethering proteins to the cell cortex", B. "using barriers such as tight junctions", C. "tethering proteins to the extracellular matrix", D. "forming a covalent linkage with membrane lipids", E. "tethering proteins to the surface of another cell"
Explanation:
According to the fluid-mosaic model, the components of cell membranes are in constant movement forming a barrier to avoid unwanted exterior component internalization and to avoid the loss of precious internal components. This constant movement could cause that proteins move across the plasma membrane. But, this is avoided by several mechanisms including:
A. Tethering proteins to the cell cortex. The cell cortex is a rigid structure made of actin and actomyosin. Proteins found in the plasma membrane are tethered to this structure to restrict their movement.
B. Using barriers such as tight junctions. Tight junctions are barriers found in epithelia made of claudin and occludin proteins. These barriers are impenetrable, which avoid the movement of proteins in the cell membrane.
C. Tethering proteins to the extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix is made of several proteins and macromolecules that provide a structural and biochemical support to cells that are nearby. Proteins could be tethered to this rigid structure as well.
D. Forming a covalent linkage with membrane lipids. The proteins in the cell membrane that form a covalent linkage with membrane lipids are known as lipid-anchored proteins, or lipid-linked proteins.
E. Tethering proteins to the surface of another cell. When cell-cell communication take place it is possible that proteins in the cell membrane got tethered to the surface of the other cell.
The answer's B. hypothalamus

The term being describe above is the hormonal method in which it prevents the egg from reaching the ovaries to prevent the women from being pregnant during intercourse. There are different types of hormonal methods being used, and it does not only prevent eggs in reaching ovaries but it prevents also sperm in reaching the uterus.
Answer: The Animalia, Plantae, and Protista are kingdoms. Kingdoms are a category for Plants, Animals, Protists, Fungi, Archaebacteria, Eubacteria. The members of this kingdom, contains all the plants which includes flowering plants, mosses, and ferns. These are broad classification categories which are used in biology.
Explanation:
Answer: option B.
Viewing drug addiction as a disease that can be treated.
Explanation:
Medicalization is a process in which humans health conditions or addictive behavior or problems are considered as medical issues and are treated as medical conditions and thus become the subject of medical study.
From the question, viewing drug addiction as a disease that can be treated is an example of medicalization.
