The right answer is polar group attract another one.

Amphipathic, amphiphilic and amphipolar, synonymous terms, denote a molecule (usually organic) carrying both a hydrophilic group (able to bind to water) and a hydrophobic group ("who does not like water").

These molecules are surfactants, in that they modify the surface tension between two media. The active components of detergents and soaps are amphipathic molecules, whose double solubility is exploited, in water (thanks to hydrophilic groups) and in fatty media (thanks to hydrophobic groups).

The membranes of living cells are made of two layers of molecules of this type (phospholipids).

The statement must be mentioned in explaining why amphipathic molecules line up at a water surface is polar group attract one another.

Amphipathic molecule are those which have both polar and non-polar part. Example phospholipids have both polar and non-polar parts  that is non-polar fatty acid tail and polar head.

Polar water molecule pull together , holding the polar parts of the amphipatic molecule and squeezing out the non-polar parts .That leave the non-polar parts in air .

When completing Punnett Squares, you cross the letters that meet up. For example, their are two TTs and two Tts. Dominant will always show before a recessive so if it's TT or Tt it will be the dominant version. two tt's mean that it's recessive. In a Punnett Square, one box = 25%.

Part A: The genotypic ratio is 50% TT and 50% Tt. The phenotypic ratio is 100% tall.

Part B: The two Tt's could produce a short plant because there is a 25% that the parents will both give t's.
