A) binding to beta-receptors, thereby preventing adrenaline from binding to the cell.
B) causing cholesterol to bind to beta-receptors, thereby blocking adrenaline from binding to the cell.
C) causing carbohydrates to bind to beta-receptors, thereby blocking adrenaline from binding to the cell.
D) preventing receptor proteins from binding to the lipid bilayer of a cell membrane.
E) preventing receptor proteins from binding to enzymatic proteins.
