Which statement best describes a direct result of damage to a phospholipid bilayer? The balance of ions inside a cell will be di

srupted and proteins could leak out because the phospholipid bilayer forms the cell membrane. Energy storage will be disrupted because the phospholipid bilayer is responsible for storing energy in the body. Chemical messages could not be sent to different parts of the body because the phospholipid bilayer forms hormones. A person would be vulnerable to disease because the phospholipid bilayer helps to fight infections in the body.

Answer:

Option A, The balance of ions inside a cell will be disrupted and proteins could leak out because the phospholipid bilayer forms the cell membrane.

Explanation:

The bi layers of phospholipid are held together by non-covalent bonds. These phospholipids consists of a hydrophilic head group which is  attached to a hydrophobic acyl chains. Breaking of phospholipid bilayer would disrupt the fluidity of the membrane and thus there shall be no  spontaneous breaking and reforming of membranes. Instead the balance between the molecules/ions  surrounding the head of the bi-layer will get disturbed and the proteins that were restrained earlier due to bilayer will now be free for leakage.

Hence, option A is correct

The phospholipid bilayer is the cell membrane of the cell so the only answer choice that makes any sense is the first one - The balance of ions inside a cell will be disrupted and proteins couldleak out because the phospholipid bilayer forms the cell membrane.

Which of the following is an enzyme required by the process of rephosphory,to create ATP? A) AD Pase B)AT Pase C)Polymerase D)AT
iren [92.7K]

ATPase is the enzyme which is required to create ATP and is denoted as option B.

<h3>What is ATPase?</h3>

This type of enzyme is found in the mitochondrion and catalyzes the formation of ATP which provides energy to cells.

The ATP which is referred to as adenosine triphosphate is formed from the molecules known as ADP and inorganic phosphate which are present in the body cells. This ensures that the daily energy needs of the body are met.

) Consider a pea plant- it has a gene controlling seed color- yellow Vs green; another gene controlling seed texture-smooth Vs w
lana [24]

Answer:

Yellow smooth  - 9

Yellow wrinkle - 3

Green smooth- 3

Green Wrinkle - 1

Explanation:

Let the green color of the seed be depicted by "G" and the yellow color of the seed be depicted by "g"

Let the smooth the seed be depicted by "R" and wrinkled seed be depicted by "r"

F1 cross -  

true breeding smooth green plant ( RRGG) and true breeding wrinkled yellow (rrgg)

F1 gamete will be RG, RG, rg, rg

F1 offspring will be RrGg , Thus all F1 offspring will be heterozygous smooth and yellow.  

Thus,  R is dominant over r and g is dominant over G

F2 Generation –  

RrGg x RrGg

Gametes will be RG, Rg, rG, rg

RG         Rg          rG           rg

RG RRGG RRGg RrGG RrGg

Rg RRGg RRgg RrGg Rrgg

rG RrGG RrGg rrGG rrGg

rg RrGg Rrgg rrGg rrgg

R is dominant over r and g is dominant over G

Genotypes are –  

RRGG - 1  (Smooth Green)

RRGg-2  (Smooth yellow)

RrGG-2  (Smooth Green)

RrGg-4  (Smooth yellow)

RRgg- 1  (smooth yellow)

Rrgg – 2  (Smooth yellow)

rrGG – 1  (wrinkled Green)

rrGg – 2  (Wrinkled yellow)

rrgg – 1  (wrinkled yellow)

Yellow smooth  - 9

Yellow wrinkle - 3

Green smooth- 3

Green Wrinkle - 1
