Biologists use the fluid mosaic model to descfibe membrane structure. Which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a mem

brane are correct? Select the three correct statements.
a. The framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophillic heads facing the aqeous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center.
b. The diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions.
c. Because membranes are fluid, membrane protrins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane.
d. Membranes include a mosaic, or mix of carbohydrates embedded in a phospholipids bilayer.
e. The kinky tails of some proteins help keep the membrane fluid by preventing the component molecules from packing solidly together.

Answer:A, B, C

Explanation:

A. The phospholipids are arranged in bilayers withe the Polar head groups oriented towards the extracellular side and the cytoplasmic side with a hydrophobic core.

The plasma membrane also contain membrane protein

B. Some Integral protein are Transmembrane protein the span the membrane and provide a hydrophilic channel and are selective for particular solute such as enzymes, antigens, hormones

The peripheral protein exit on the surface of the bilayer the serve as signal protein

C. The membrane lipid bilayers are not static or rigid. They show free lateral movement of its components hence the membrane is fluid in nature. Fluidity enables the membrane to perform endocytosis and exocytosis

How can mutations lead to human evolution?

Answer:

How Mutations Can Lead to Human Evolution?

Explanation:

A mutation is the random change in the nucleotide sequence or in the DNA organization (genotype) of a living being, [1] that produces a variation in its characteristics and that is not necessarily transmitted to the offspring. It occurs spontaneously and suddenly or due to the action of mutagens. This change will be present in a small proportion of the population (variant) or the organism (mutation). The genetic unit capable of mutating is the gene, the unit of hereditary information that is part of DNA.

In multicellular beings, mutations can only be inherited when they affect reproductive cells. A consequence of mutations can be, for example, a genetic disease. However, although they may seem harmful in the short term, mutations are essential to our long-term existence. Without mutation there would be no change, and without change life could not evolve.

Scientist are trying to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere which statement explains what most l
german

Answer:

These efforts will decrease the amount of heat that the atmosphere traps.

Explanation:

Both Carbon dioxide and methane are considered to be green house gases.

However, green house gases are known to cause climatic changes by trapping or absorbing heat from the sun or in some other cases, produces large amount of heat through combustion, the result which can give rise to respiratory disease from smog and air pollution.

Hence, when Scientist tried to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere their efforts will decrease the amount of heat that the atmosphere traps.
