Answer:

Both (b) and (c)

Explanation:

Fats, steroids and waxes are some of the most common types of lipids. Lipids are non-polar hydrocarbons because of the presence of non-polar carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds in there structure.

Generally, polar molecules are soluble in water while non-polar molecules are insoluble in water, hence, lipids do not dissolve in water. There non-polarity also makes them a suitable component in the selectively permeable biological cell membrane.

Electron microscopes use
Pavel [41]

Electron microscopes use _beam of electrons___ in order to allow for higher magnification and more detail when viewing specimens.

Explanation:

A beam of electrons has a shorter wavelength than normal light used in light microscopes, by approximately a factor of X 100000. Therefore, electrons microscope have the inherent attribute of having a very high resolution. They have been used to discover very small organelles in cells such as the ribosomes and mitochondria that cannot be clearly viewed even with the highest resolution in light microscopes.

Which is the main reason cells are replaced in the body?. The cells are too large.. The cells are inactive.. The cells are damag
anygoal [31]

The right answer is The cells are damaged.

Take the example of skin cells.  

The skin consists of two tissues:

* the outermost, the epidermis, resting on a vascularized connective tissue,

* the dermis.

In the epidermis, which includes several layers of cells, the outer layer is formed of dead cells that are desquamating and are constantly being replaced from proliferating basal cell cells. So, in normal conditions, the epidermis is in constant renewal.

On the other hand, when accidentally, the upper parts of the epidermis are damaged, for example, a slight abrasion or of a burn, the destroyed portion is regenerated (replaced) thanks to an accelerated proliferation of basal epidermal cells .
