<span>The basic building blocks of a cell membrane are phospholipids. Phospholipids contain a hydrophobic (insoluble in water) end made up of two fatty acid chains of nonpolar molecules such as carbons and hydrogens. The other end is hydrophobic (soluble in water) and contains polar phosphate molecules. These phospholipids are arranged in a bilayer with their hydrophilic end group exposed to water on each side of the membrane and the hydrophobic nonpolar molecules protected inside the double layer. </span>

There are multiple lines of evidence that provide support for common ancestry and evolution. Write 3-4 paragraphs describing at
Colt1911 [192]

Though I cannot write this essay for you, I can provide some information to get you started on the relationship between ancestry and evolution.

<h3 /><h3>How are ancestry and evolution related?</h3>

Ancestry and evolution share a close relationship in that we can use one to learn about the other. Evolution can be <u>traced </u>using ancestry. By analyzing the genetic information of ancestral species and using information gathered about the environment in which they lived, we can deduce the impact of evolution on said species. One possible example is that penguins used to be capable of flight, but given their mostly aquatic environments, have evolved wings more suited for swimming, and lost the ability to fly as a result.

Therefore, we can say that ancestry and genetic information can be used to support the theory of evolution by examining how two species can be very different but share a common ancestor, and evolution can explain these changes.

The right answer is: <span>organelle, cell, and tissue

<span>Muscle is a soft tissue, found in animals. Composed of muscle tissue and connective tissue (+ blood vessels + nerves). The muscle cells (a component of the muscle tissue) contain actin and myosin protein filaments that slide on each other, producing a contraction that changes both the length and shape of the cell.
</span></span>The muscle cells, like other cells, consists of a plasma membrane containing a cytoplasm, which is formed of an aqueous solution (Cytosol) in which there are many biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, organized or not in the context of organelles.<span>
