How do unsaturated phospholipid fatty acid tails affect plasma membrane fluidity?

Biology
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
4 0
A phospholipid is made of glycerol, two the fatty acid tails, and a phosphate-linked head group. More unsaturated fatty acids it means less tightly packed phospholipids its results to the greater membrane fluidity. Unsaturated fatty acids are naturally occurring, meaning that the remaining hydrogen is on the same side of the molecule and result in a bending of the hydrocarbon chain.

What kind of mutation would occur if a sequence of DNA is changed from ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Base substitution mutation

Explanation:

Mutation is the alteration or change that occurs to the sequence of a gene caused by a mutagen (chemicals) or spontaneously-induced. Depending on how the mutation occurs, it is of different types. The mutation shown in this question is as follows:

ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG

This type of mutation is called SUBSTITUTION MUTATION. Substitution mutation is a type of mutation that involves the replacement of one or more nucleotide base by another. In this original sequence; ATCGGCTTAACG, the eight base T was replaced by base A in the sequence, hence, it is a substitution mutation.
