Water at 4 degrees centigrade has the highest density of all other water temperatures. This is why ice (whose temperature is below 0 degrees) floats on very cold water. This phenomenon is significant in the Artic and Antarctic where ice shelves float on cold ocean waters in the poles. Animals that live in these regions (such as seals and polar bears) use these ice shelves as hunting platforms.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The correct option is <em>B. Cholesterol is non-polar.</em>

Explanation:

Cholesterol is a non- polar substance and due to this property it is an active part of the cell membrane. Cholesterol molecules help to maintain the stability of a cell. When the temperatures are high, cholesterol stops the cell membrane from crystallization. When the temperatures are low, cholesterol reduces the packaging of molecules of phospholipids. As a result, fluid phase is archived by the cell membrane.

How and where viruses reproduce and the function of RNA and DNA in this process.
bija089 [108]
Viruses reproduce by inserting their genetic code into the genetic code of a cell, from there, an active virus will copy itself over and over until that cell bursts, where the new viruses can repeat the process. Another type of virus inserts itself into the genetic code, but does not actively reproduce. It sits and waits for the cell to reproduce for it, by splitting in the way cells do.
