The correct answer is option (D) Lipid molecules are nonpolar because they repel water molecules, which are polar.
Lipids are organic compounds made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A glycerol is a organic molecule with three hydroxyl groups and a fatty acid consists of a long hydrocarbon chain attached to a carboxyl group.
Lipids are hydrophobic, nonpolar molecules with no charge on their ends. Waxes are long chain nonpolar lipids. The water repelling property of the waxes prevent the water sticking to it and appear as water beads on its surface. The hydrophobic hydrocarbon tail of the fatty acids are hydrophobic in nature making them repel water. The presence of wax on the surface of the plants and animals protects them from dehydration.
Thus, the nonpolar property of lipids make it insoluble in the polar solvents like water as there is no interaction or sharing of electrons between them.
Answer:
The correct answer is vasogenic edema.
Explanation:
A kind of cerebral edema in which the blood-brain barrier is disrupted is termed as vasogenic cerebral edema. It refers to extracellular edema that primarily influences the white matter through leakage of fluid from the capillaries.
It is primarily witnessed surrounding the brain tumors, that is, both primary and secondary and the cerebral abscesses, however, some of the vasogenic edema may be witnessed around the developing cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral contusion.
Answer:
"Biotic factors" is the awnser
Explanation:
Answer:
The given statement is false, as some of the fruits like a banana do not contain seeds as they get propagated through the offsets. The development of banana takes place without fertilization, that is, via the procedure of parthenocarpy. All the fruits are also not sweet in taste like lemon is a fruit, which is sour in taste. Thus, all the fruits are sweet is also incorrect.
Producers, because according to food pyramid, only 10% of energy is passed onto the next layer, where the other 90 is passed off as heat, so there must be more producer in order to sustain the ecosystem.
