Imagine a new type of cell was discovered on Mars in an organism growing in benzene, a nonpolar liquid. The cell had a lipid bil

ayer made of phospholipids, but its structure was very different from that of our cell membranes.What might be characteristic features of the phospholipid head groups?1) The phospholipid head groups would likely bind to each other with covalent bonds that would pack well and not be bulky.2) The phospholipid head groups would likely have equal numbers of positively and negatively charged groups that would pack well and not be bulky.3) The phospholipid head groups would likely have equal numbers of hydroxyl and amino groups that would pack well and not be bulky.4) The phospholipid head groups would likely bind to each other with hydrogen bonding that would pack well and not be bulky.

Answer:

2) The phospholipid head groups would likely have equal numbers of positively and negatively charged groups that would pack well and not be bulky.

Explanation:

Benzene contains aromatic groups making it non-polar while the phopholipid head contains the negatively charged phosphate group making it polar. These molecules would repel each other forcing the phopholipid head to be in the inner membrane forming. The hydrophobic non-polar phospholipid tail would form hydrophobic bonds with benzene. The phospholipid head would likely have equal numbers of positively and negatively charged groups that would allow them to form ion-ion interactions helping them pack well and not be bulky. If the heads were still negatively charged they would likely repel each other and be disordered.

geniusboy [140]

Answer: C. Preying

Explanation:

A non-native species is the species which is introduced to a new ecosystem. This species is introduced intentionally or accidentally to a new ecosystem by human beings or they may enter to the ecosystem by their own.

A non-native species can be invasive which means it can compete with the native species for resources like shelter, food and mates.

According to the given situation, the Gila trouts being the native species has been affected by the non-native Rainbow trout. This may be because of the fact that non-native species can be invasive for the native species. As the species is used as mate by the non-native species and they may become the prey of non-native species. This has resulted in the extinction of the species of Gila trouts.

Airida [17]

Answer:

The answer is given below.

Explanation:

Rescorla explain this finding by stating that the tone experienced by the group of rats just before each of 20 shocks was a reliable predictor of the shock for the first group.

The psychologist Robert Rescorla stated in his famous classical conditioning experiment that  2 stimuli does not produce the same level and kind of conditioning.  Conditioning works in a better way, if the conditioned stimulus will act as a reliable signal that projects the appearance of an unconditioned stimulus.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

Biogenesis

Explanation:

Biogenesis has permitted rapid advances in our understanding of structural macromolecules from living cells. Biogenesis theory was first coined by Rudolph Virchow and countered the claim of organisms being in existence according to the Big Bang Theory technique. Biogenesis involves the study of how organisms evolved from smaller ones to become complex.

Biokinetics deals with ways to maintain a healthy body through physical activities. Bio thermodynamics deals with the flow of energy in a biological system while Bioinformatics deals with the use of computer and technology in data analysis.
