Answer: Van der Waals forces
Explanation:
Van der Waals forces are weak intermolecular forces that depend on the distance between two particles. They are caused by correlations in the change in polarization between two nearby particles. To put it in other words, when a particle changes its polarization (becomes more positive on one end and more negative on the other), so does the adjacent particle, and the next one, and so on. This causes these particles to stick together weakly.
The tiny "hairs" increase the surface area of the gecko's feet in contact with the wall, which makes the bond stronger and allows it to support all of its weight.
Because experiments have shown that geckos stick well to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, we can assume there aren't any hydrogen bonds present.
Ionic bonds can't be present either because geckos wouldn't stick to electrically neutral surfaces, as these bonds require charged molecules.
Answer:
The correct answer would be B. semi-permeable.
Plasma membrane of any cell including red blood cell is semi-permeable in nature as it is made up of lipid bilayer.
It permits the passage of certain substances across the membrane while it blocks other substances.
Gases, small uncharged or non-polar substances such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, et cetera can easily pass through the cell membrane of a cell.
Large or charged molecules such as proteins, sodium ions, potassium ions et cetera can not pass through the cell membrane. They require carrier proteins to pass through the membrane.
Scientific inquiry is to think , ponder, and have an interest in investigating something that exist or you think may exist or should exist. Anyone can use it ( kind of like the scientific method) but people who commonly use it seriously is police, scientists, and other career fields who find it necessary. Scientific inquiry involves a person, research tools, space, writing pad, and one, etc.
