Answer:
The correct answer is B: Cohesion
Explanation:
<u>Cohesion</u> is the ability of water molecules to be strongly bonded together. This happens due to the polarity of water molecules. Since water is made up of two positive hydrogen ions that combine with one negative oxygen ion to form a hydrogen bond. Hence, the molecular structure of water enables hydrogen irons to attract oxygen ions that create a strong polar bond between water molecules.
C. Insulating the body
Insulating the body is not a function of a protein.
Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation.
<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

Answer:
A. Conduct impulses faster.
Explanation:
Myelinated axons are called that way due to the myelin sheath that surrounds them. Myelin has an insulation property so electrical impulses cannot travel through it, except on certain sites called Nodes of Ranvier. In order for electrical impulses to be conducted on myelinated axons they must "jump" from one Node of Ranvier to the next, and thus conduction is faster. This is called saltatory conduction.
Nucleic acid<span> typically contain phosphorous, and nitrogen plays an important structural role in nucleic acids and proteins. The proteins, being made up a diverse set of amino acids, have, in addition to carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, the elements sulfur and selenium.</span>
