Which characteristics makes a cell membrane selectively preamble

Biology

Brrunno [24]3 years ago

Cells are selectively permeable due to the Phospolipid Bilayer. It allows only certain molecules to pass through. The cell membrane is made of two sheets of phosolipid bilayers

Did you mean permeable?

The hydrophobic center to a cell membrane (also known as a phospholipid bilayer) gives the membrane selective permeability.  If a substance is permeable , something such as water or gas can pass through it or soak.

Some solutes cross the membrane freely, some cross with assistance, and others do not cross at all.

Large molecules do not cross intact cell membranes, except in certain special cases.

Rosalind Franklin's x-ray diffraction images of DNA gave James Watson and Francis Crick information about DNA's
GuDViN [60]
Description:How an X-ray diffraction pattern is created and how the DNA X-ray diffraction pattern can be interpreted to give the dimensions. (DNAi location: Code > Finding the Structure > piece of the puzzle > Franklin's X-ray)Transcript:This is the X-ray crystallograph pattern of DNA obtained by Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling in 1952. It is know as the B-form. It was clearer than the other X-ray patterns because water was included in the DNA sample. Both James Watson and Francis Crick were struck by the simplicity and symmetry of this pattern. The distinctive "X" in this X-ray photo is the telltale pattern of a helix. Because the X-ray pattern is so regular, the dimensions of the helix must also be consistent. For example, the diameter of the helix stays the same..........Keywords:x ray diffraction,x ray crystallography,rosalind franklin dna,diffraction pattern,ray pattern,s college

Relate the development of plant needles to the occurrence of mutations.
xxMikexx [17]
<h2>Development of Plant Needles</h2>

Explanation:

  • Seed of pitch pine treated with colchicine delivered tetraploid seedlings which had thick and sporadic needles and less fortunate tallness and diameter growth than ordinary seedlings.  
  • In test of colchicine-initiated polyploidy in pines, researcher found that a significant number of the polyploid plants returned to a diploid development in light of the fact that the polyploid cells partitioned at a more slow rate and were overwhelmed by the more quickly developing diploid cells which encompassed them.  
  • The primary needles of both diploid and polyploid plants were more effective at low light intensity than secondary needles, and they had lower compensation points.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

A. The heartbeat can be heard

Explanation:

After the first trimester, during the fourth month, the heartbeat of the fetus becomes loud enough to be heard with the help of a stethoscope placed on the abdomen of the mother.

From fifth to the seventh month of the development, kicks and jabs are felt by the mother as the fetal legs grow and develops. Languo, a wrinkled pink colored skin covers the fetus.

Languo is in turn covered with a white greasy substance called vernix caseosa.

From eighth to ninth months, rotation of the fetus places its head pointing towards the cervix to facilitate childbirth later.

The development of testes takes place in the seventh month while the body hairs become disappeared in the eighth month.
