Answer and explanation;
-All lipids contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Some of them also contain nitrogen and phosphorus. The four main classes of lipids are fats, waxes, sterols, and phospholipids. Fats are triglycerides.
-The functions of lipids include storing energy, signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes.
-Lipids are water-insoluble (hydrophobic), and this property is put to great use in the organisation of cells and tissues.
For example; phospholipids are a class of lipids that is amphipathic; that is it contains fatty acid tails that are hydrophobic, and a phosphate head that is hydrophilic. This means the phosphate group will orientate itself towards water and away from the rest of the molecule, and also gives rise to the special properties that allow phospholipids to be used to form membranes.
<h2>Cannon -Bard theory</h2>
Explanation:
- Alone in the woods, Pedro hears a noise. He thinks he sees a bear coming toward him. His heart starts pounding and then, a moment later, he realizes how frightened he is. This sequence of events is BEST explained by the <u>Cannon-Bard t</u>heory of emotion.
According to Cannon-Bard theory, all the emotional expressions occur due to the stimulation of hypothalamic structures present in brain. This theory also states that feeling and physiological effects of an emotional stimuli occurs simultaneously.
Here, James thinks that a bear is coming, this is a stimulus. His heart starts pounding that is the physiological effect of the stimulus and the next moment he feels frightened which is a feeling.
So we conclude that in this case, the physiological effect and feeling of emotion occurred simultaneously. So these sequence of events is best explained by Cannon-Bard's theory.
Phenotypically and genotypically there are only two different ratios. If you think of a Punett square...
<span>You could say that a pea plant with the trait for the dominant color green (G) could also carry the recessive trait for yellow (g). So let's say you mate a dominant green, (Gg) with another dominant green, (Gg). You would get 1 (GG), 2 (Gg) and 2 (gg). </span>
<span>Phenotypically (as in physical traitwise), the ratio is 3:1 because you have 3 green colored peas and one yellow. </span>
<span>Genotypically (as in traitwise), the ratio is 1:2:1, because you have 1 (GG), 2 (Gg) and 1 (gg). </span>
<span>So although it's random, for any specific trait there are only 4 different outcomes.</span>
<h2>Urea </h2>
Explanation:
Urea is a small nitrogenous compound which is the main end product of protein catabolism in mammals
- Urea is a nitrogen-containing substance normally cleared from the blood by the kidney into the urine
- It is made predominantly in the liver from ammonia and bicarbonate and is one of the main components of urine
- The rate of synthesis varies from 300 to 600 mmol/day depending on the protein intake
- All of this urea eventually finds its way into the urine
- Because urea makes up a large part of the obligatory solute excretion, its osmotic pressure requires significant volumes of water to carry the urea
- Urea passively crosses biological membranes, but its permeability is low because of its low solubility in the lipid bilayer
- Some cells speed up this process through urea transporters, which move urea by facilitated diffusion
- Urea is passively reabsorbed in the proximal tubule, but its route of transport is not clear
- Urea transporters have not yet been identified for the proximal tubule
Answer: 23 chromosomes
In humans, gametes are haploid cells that contain 23 chromosomes, each of which a one of a chromosome pair that exists in diplod cells. The number of chromosomes in a single set is represented as n, which is also called the haploid number. In humans, n = 23.
