3 0

Answer:

The answer is a. chromosomes; proteins.

Explanation:

Genes are segments of chromosomes that code for protein synthesis.

Genes are packed in chromosomes so they can fit the cell, otherwise, they would be too long to do so.

Show how the alleles for tall plant height and short plant height are segregated from each other during gamete formation
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

"T" X "t" yields offspring that are all heterozygous with genotype "Tt"

Explanation:

An Allele refers to either of a pair of contrasting genes.

So, "TT" being the same yeild just one allele (T), while "tt" also yield one allele (t)

So, the cross of the both alleles

"T" X "t"

yields offspring that are all heterozygous with genotype "Tt"

Thus, the crossing dominant tall plant height "TT" and recessive short plant height "tt" yielded heterozygous tall plants "Tt"

Why do phospholipids tend to spontaneously orient themselves into something resembling a membrane such as the lipid-bilayer sphe
KatRina [158]

The phospholipid bilayer functions mainly as a structural framework for the membrane where the polar heads of the phospholipids tend to orient towards their polar surroundings, preserving the hydrophobic part from any contact with water.

<h3>What are phospholipids?</h3>

They are lipid molecules that have a strongly polar group in addition to the hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain.

<h3>Characteristics of phospholipids</h3>

  • The polar heads are oriented towards the aqueous medium (intra and extracellular).

  • The hydrophobic tails tend to be oriented towards the lipid medium, that is, inside the bilayer, constituting the membrane matrix.

Therefore, we can conclude that phospholipids, due to their amphipathic nature, tend to orient or organize themselves spontaneously, forming the so-called lipid bilayer.
