The answer is hydrophobic.

Phospholipid fatty acid tails are made of fatty acids that are hydrophobic in nature. These tails face each other in the phospholipid bilayer making the inner part of the membrane hydrophobic. The heads of phospholipids are made of phosphates therefore they are hydrophilic. These molecules are called amphipathic molecules.

scoray [572]

Albinism is a recessive trait. A man and woman who both have normal pigmentation have one child out of three who has albinism (without melanin pigmentation). The genotypes of this child's parents: (C) Both parents must be heterozygous.

Albinism is an autosomal and not a sex-linked recessive trait.

Only homozygous recessive (aa) offspring will be albino, both homozygous dominant (AA) and heterozygous dominant (Aa) offspring will possess the normal phenotype.

Since it is given that both the father and the mother have normal pigmentation, thus they must both have the genotype Aa.

From the Punnett square it can be observed that a cross between the parents would result in the creation of three offspring with the normal genotype (one with AA and two with Aa) and one offspring with the genotype aa (albino).

A fish maintains its depth in fresh water by adjusting the air content of porous bone or air sacs to make its average density th
Volgvan

Answer:

0.153

Explanation:

We know the up-thrust on the fish, U = weight of water displaced = weight of fish + weight of air in air sacs.

So ρVg = ρ'V'g + ρ'V"g where ρ = density of water = 1 g/cm³, V = volume of water displaced, g = acceleration due to gravity, ρ'= density of fish = 1.18 g/cm³, V' = initial volume of fish, ρ"= density of air = 0.0012 g/cm³ and V" = volume of expanded air sac.

ρVg = ρ'V'g + ρ"V"g

ρV = ρ'V'g + ρ"V"

Its new body volume = volume of water displaced, V = V' + V"

ρ(V' + V") = ρ'V' + ρ"V"

ρV' + ρV" = ρ'V' + ρ"V"

ρV' - ρ"V'  = ρ'V" - ρV"

(ρ - ρ")V'  = (ρ' - ρ)V"

V'/V" = (ρ - ρ")/(ρ' - ρ)

= (1 g/cm³ - 0.0012 g/cm³)/(1.18 g/cm³ - 1 g/cm³)

= (0.9988 g/cm³ ÷ 0.18 g/cm³)

V'/V" = 5.55

Since V = V' + V"

V' = V - V"

(V - V")/V" = 5.55

V/V" - V"/V" = 5.55

V/V" - 1 = 5.55

V/V" = 5.55 + 1

V/V" = 6.55

V"/V = 1/6.55

V"/V = 0.153

So, the fish must inflate its air sacs to 0.153 of its expanded body volume

How does temperature affect pressure?
Delvig [45]

Answer:

D. As temperature increases, so does pressure.

Explanation:

As the temperature increases, the average kinetic energy increases, making the gas particles hit the walls of the container more (therefore increasing pressure). Hopefully this helps! Good luck :)
