<h2>Answer</h2>
The plasma membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer, with the <u>Hydrophilic</u><u> </u><u>Heads</u> of the phospholipids <u>sticking out toward the interior and exterior of the cell</u>.
- <u>The hydrophilic polar head of the phospholipid is attracted to water, while the hydrophobic tails are excluded by water.</u>

Answer: Angiosperms are the plants which produce flowers for sexual reproduction.
Explanation:
In the angiosperm life cycle the following events occur:
1. Seed germination: Under suitable condition inside the soil obtain water, oxygen and minerals the seed germinates and from the two precursors plumule from where the stem emerge and radicle from where the root emerges.
2. Mature plant with flower: The plant gets matured with the develop of root and shoot and from the shoot the bud originates which produces the flower.
3. Pollination: During the process of pollination a mature pollen grain is transferred towards the female reproductive structure typically the stigma receives the pollen grain.
3. Fertilization of pollen with egg in ovary: The pollen is the male gametophyte which develops in the anthers which are the male reproductive structure of the flower and the egg or ovule is the female gamete which develops inside the ovary or female gametophyte. The fusion of male gametes provided by the pollen grain with that of the ovule is called as fertilization.
4. Formation of fruit with seed: After the fertilization process the ovules develop into seed and the ovary into fruit.
5. Seed dispersal: The fruit gets detached from the plant and it may get rotten and dried the dried seeds disperse and may germinate in favorable conditions.

<span> B. A mutation can result in a change of function. </span>Not all mutations can cause negative effects, but a single mutation is capable of causing profound effect on the physiology and cellular structure of organisms. It can alter the function of proteins causing permanent diseases.
Answer: the membrane channel
Explanation:
In passive diffusion, the small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer seen in blue. This layer acts as a semi-permeable or selectively permeable membrane; its hydrophilic heads are attracted to water (seen facing outwards) while its water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water to diffuse across the membrane along the concentration gradient.
Thus the water will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, until the system reaches a steady state called equilibrium- after this, there will be no net movement of water. 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.
The dialysis tubing mimics a semi permeable membrane; it only allows water and small molecules of iodine to cross into the bag containing starch. The tubing is impermeable to starch; these large molecules require the aid of protein omplexes called membrane channels, in order to move across the membrane and against the concentration gradient.
