B) They maintain balance in the cell.
That mix of hydrophobic and hydrophilic, in other words, the mix of repelling and attraction maintains the aqueous balance in a cell and it's exterior.

The phospholipid bilayer is a universal component of all cell membranes. Each phospholipid molecule has a hydrophobic(water repelling) and a hydrophilic( attracted to water) end. This allows the phospholipids to arrange themselves in a way that makes a cell membrane not able to dissolve in water. The bilayer is also semi-permeable which allows only certain molecules to enter the cell.

Different responses triggered by thyroxine in different organisms is most likely due to different kinds of receptor and consequently different signal cascade and response.
The thyroid hormones (including thyroxine) bind to a specific types of nuclear receptors, termed the thyroid hormone receptors which together with corepressor molecules, bind DNA regions called thyroid hormone response elements.
Answer:
Written below.
Explanation:
5. During meiosis, a reproductive cell and its nucleus divide twice and produce four cells––two pairs of identical haploid cells.
6. Homologous chromosomes are two pieces of DNA within a diploid organism that carry the same genes, one from each parental source. In simpler terms, both of your parents provide a complete genome. Each parent provides the same 23 chromosomes, which encode the same genes.
