Answer:

Cohesion refers to the attraction of molecules for other molecules of the same kind, and water molecules have strong cohesive forces thanks to their ability to form hydrogen bonds with one another. ... and the water molecules at the surface form stronger interactions with the neighbors they do have.

Definition of cell membrane

Andrew [12]

Answer:

The cell membrane is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment which protects the cell from its environment. The cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer, including cholesterols that sit between phospholipids to maintain their fluidity at various temperatures.

Many different types of mutations can occur within the body. An individual experiences a mutation that changes a base in a tRNA

Katarina [22]

Answer;

Silent

Explanation;

-Silent mutations occur when the change of a single DNA nucleotide within a protein-coding portion of a gene does not affect the sequence of amino acids that make up the gene's protein. These mutations result in no change of the amino acid or amino acid functionality when the altered messenger RNA (mRNA) is translated.

In observing epithelial cells under a microscope, the cells are arranged in a single layer and look tall and narrow, and the nuc

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Tall, narrow cells arranged in a single layer correspond to a simple columnar epithelial tissue.

Explanation:

According to the arrangement of cells, epithelial tissues can be classified as:

- Simple epithelium, formed by a single cellular layer which is in contact with the basement membrane

- Stratified epithelium, formed by two or more cellular layers. The cellular shape and high vary from one layer to the other. In classification, only the superficial layer is considered.

- Transitional epithelium. In this case, the epithelial cells vary in shape and size allowing the tissue to stretch.

Classification of epithelial tissues according to the cell shape:

- Squamous epithelium: Epithelial cells are flat and thin. Their nucleus is narrow and centered. This epithelium can be found in endothelium, mesothelium, pericardium, and peritoneum.

- Cuboidal epithelium: Epithelial cells are cubic shaped: their width, length and high are about equal. Their nucleus is rounded and centered. This epithelium can be found in kidney tubules, Malpighi tubules, thyroid gland, salivary glands, and pancreas.

- Columnar epithelium: Epithelial cells are tall, rectangular and/or column-shaped, longer than width. Their nucleus is ovoid and near to the base. This epithelium can be found in the stomach, intestine, duct of glands, Fallopian trumps, etc. Their functions are related to secretion, absorption, protection, motility.

Types of epithelium tissue:

- Simple squamous epithelium

- Simple cuboidal epithelium

- Simple columnar epithelium

- Stratified squamous epitheliums

- Stratified cuboidal epitheliums

- Stratified columnar epitheliums

- Transitional epithelium
