Cholesterol in Cell membrane strengthens and helps to maintain the fluid nature of a cell regardless of temperature
<u>Explanation:</u>
All organisms are made up of one or more cells. Each cell is protected or differentiated by a covering called as the cell membrane. Phospholipids are the basic structure of the cell membrane. Cholesterol prevents the loss of fluid from phospholipids.
Cell membrane has a lipid layer and cholesterol which is placed between the phospholipids to maintain the fluid nature of the cell under different temperature. Cholesterol prevents the cell from solidifying and helps maintain the fluid. Cholesterol actually acts as a buffer between different temperatures.
Answer:
Random mutations led to evolution of pesticide resistance genes in bed bugs.
Explanation:
Random mutations in genome of bed bug imparted them the pesticide resistance. Since the bed bugs having the mutation of pesticide resistance were able to survive under presence of pesticides, this variation was favored by natural selection. The bugs with pesticide resistance transmitted this trait to their progeny. In time, the bed bug population consisted of most of the bugs having the pesticide resistance.
Answer:
Limiting human use of nitrogen that is in the atmosphere.
Explanation:
The biodiversity will decrease due to an increase in pollution is the effect will have on the biodiversity on the river ecosystem.
Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Biodiversity is the actual collection of total amounts of flora and fauna present in a particular ecosystem. The river ecosystem consists of the aquatic plants, the aquatic animals like fishes,etc and even the surrounding land plants and animals, who utilize the river water for their living.
The inclusion of the polluted sewage of the surrounding area into the river directly mixes several chemicals to the water, which are potentially harmful for all the animals living there. This leads to destruction of the flora and fauna of both water and lands surrounding them. This hampers the biodiversity of the water as well as surrounding land.
