Phospholipids make up most of the lipid part of the cell membrane. Since water exists on both the outside and inside of a cell,

which of the following phospholipid arrangements makes the most sense?a single layer of phospholipids with the polar heads facing outside the celltwo back-to-back phospholipid layers with the non-polar tails facing out on both sidesa single layer of phospholipids with the polar heads facing inside the celltwo back-to-back phospholipid layers with the polar heads facing out on both sides

Answer:

Two back-to-back phospholipid layers with the polar heads facing out on both sides

Explanation:

Phospholipids are made up of a head  and two tails. The head can be described as a phosphate molecule that is water loving (hydrophilic) whereas fatty acids make up the two tails. The fatty acids repel water and hence are hydrophobic. The assembling of the phospholipids for the the formation of cell membrane depends on these hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. The assembling of the phospholipids is in two layers. The phosphate head face outwards on both sides to attract water and the tails tend to hide from the water molecules by being composed in the layers of the head. this assembling is termed as the "self-assembly".

Why do dolphins kill more people every year than sharks?
Alik [6]

Answer:

Dolphins use their strong snouts as a powerful weapon to ram sharks, targeting their soft underbellies and gills to cause injuries. Sharks pose less of a threat to larger members of the dolphin family. Indeed, orcas are the top predator in the ocean and small sharks are a target for some populations.

This subcellular structure functions to modify gene expression products before they are shuttled out of the cell via exocytosis.
Over [174]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- Golgi apparatus

Explanation:

The proteins are synthesized in the ribosomes whether they are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or free. These synthesized proteins enter the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum where they get packaged to go to Golgi apparatus.

The Golgi apparatus is the site of post-translational modification of the secreted proteins like ubiquitination, acetylation, phosphorylation and many others.

Thus, the Golgi apparatus is the correct answer.
