Which structures add to the fluidity of the plasma membrane:

Biology
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(a) Carbohydrates are the structures  which add to the fluidity of the plasma membrane.

Explanation:

The principle components of plasma membrane are lipids, proteins and carbohydrates which are attached to some proteins and lipids. Membrane fluidity means how much viscous is the lipid bilayer of cell membrane? The membrane phospholipids absorbs fatty acids of different lengths and saturation. When there is amore distance between phospholipids fluidity increases.Another one is the  temperature and cholesterol. So these are the three factors which affects the fluidity of the membrane. The rate of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids decides the fluidity of the membrane at cold temperatures. Cholesterol take up the tasks as buffer blocking the lower temperatures from fluidity inhibition and blocking higher temperatures from increasing of fluidity.

PLEASE HELP! In this simulation, the masses of the planets were all the same. Do you think if the masses of the planets were dif
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

It would certainly make a difference.

Explanation:

The mass of a planet determines how thick the planets atmosphere would be, if it can even sustain an atmosphere. If all the masses are the same, all of the large planets would not be able to sustain life, while all of the smaller, denser planets still have a chance.

The mass of a planet also affects it’s gravitational pull. If all of the planets had the same mass, they would all have the same gravitational pull, meaning that they would all attract the same amount of asteroids, meteors, and other spacial objects.

Overall, the simulation would certainly be different, for many, many reasons. The above are only two, and if you would like more, just add a comment and I can give you more.

Which would be an adaptation in a very cold place but not in a rainforest?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The adaptations like paddy feet and fur on the outer body is an adaptation for very cold place but not for the rain forest.

Explanation: If the outer body of the organism is made of fur then it will protect the inside body from cold and will provide warmth.

But if the body will have adaptation like fur in the rain forest then it will make the organism wet so there will be no use of fur on the outer surface of the organism.

The adaptation like camouflage will help the organism in the rainforest so that it can hide themselves from predators in the forest.
