Explanation:
The polar nature of the membrane’s surface can attract polar molecules, where they can later be transported through various mechanisms. Also, the non-polar region of the membrane allows for the movement of small non-polar molecules across the membrane’s interior, while preventing the movement of polar molecules, thus maintaining the cell’s composition of solutes and other substances by limiting their movement.
Further explanation:
Lipids are composed of fatty acids which form the hydrophobic tail and glycerol which forms the hydrophilic head; glycerol is a 3-Carbon alcohol which is water soluble, while the fatty acid tail is a long chain hydrocarbon (hydrogens attached to a carbon backbone) with up to 36 carbons. Their polarity or arrangement can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties i.e. they are amphiphilic. Via diffusion, small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds.
Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer, this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.
Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers. Carrier proteins and channel proteins are the two major classes of membrane transport proteins; these allow large molecules called solutes (including essential biomolecules) to cross the membrane.

Answer:
Protein denaturation can be defined as the condition in which protein or nucleic acid lose their Quaternary structure, tertiary structure or secondary structure which is present in its native form.
This is done by help of some external stress or compounds say base, acid, concentrated inorganic salts.
Protein hydrolysis can be defined as the condition in which the proteins are cleaved at specific sites so that it can be converted into amino acids.
There are many food processing techniques that results in protein hydrolysis or protein denaturation. Example: Pasteurization, mechanical mixing, boiling, et cetera
Answer:
The molecules in the water spread apart. The molecules in the thermometer's liquid spread apart. When a thermometer was placed in water to measure the water’s temperature. the molecules in the thermometer liquid which is often mercury spreads apart and rises, this shows a temperature increase in the thermometer.
Answer:
1. TEF
2.RMR
3.TEA
Explanation:
The major components that contribute to the body daily expenditure are as follows
1. TEF(Thermal effect of feeding)
2.RMR( Resting metabolic rate )
3.TEA(Thermal effect of activity)
Generally resting metabolic rate consume 60 to 75% of energy for maintenance thwe body temperature.
When body is doing this some physical work then it is called activity related expenditure.
