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.

Estas de acuerdo con la aplicación del principio de la física en ecología:¨la energía no desaparece ni se destruye, solo se tran
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Esta afirmación es correcta ya que la ley de conservación de la energía es también aplicable a sistemas vivos  

Explanation:

La ley de la conservación de la energía (la cual es la primera ley de la termodinámica) indica que la energía no se puede crear ni se puede destruir, solamente se transforma, de un tipo a otro. La ley de la conservación de la energía es de vital importancia para entender la existencia del mundo natural. En ecología, la energía fluye de un nivel trófico a otro en forma de biomasa, es decir, dentro de la cadena alimentaria. Esta energía no se puede crear ni destruir sino que es almacenada en los organismos, los cuales representan sistemas abiertos que intercambian materia y energía con el medio. Una vez dentro del organismo, una parte de esta energía es transformada (en plantas, por ejemplo, la energía es convertida en enlaces químicos durante la síntesis de carbohidratos), mientras que otra parte de la energía se elimina al exterior (por ejemplo, se disipa en forma de calor), pero la energía no se crea ni se destruye.
