Which correctly shows the process of photosynthesis?

Which of the following factors does not affect membrane permeability?A) The polarity of membrane phospholipids.B) Temperature.C)

lapo4ka [179]

The correct answer is: A) The polarity of membrane phospholipids

Factors that affect membrane permeability are

1. Chemicals :

Some of the organic solvents such as chloroform and ethanol can dissolve the membrane and thus, destroy the selective permeability of the membrane.

2. Temperature :

Too high temperatures denature the protein that are in the structure of the membrane destroying its selective permeability. On the other hand, too low temperature slows down molecule movements and the permeability decreases.

3. Cholesterol:

Increases the permeability by reducing the barrier formed by phospholipids’ heads

4. The saturation of hydrocarbon tails in membrane phospholipids:

Saturated fatty acids decrease permeability of the membrane because they get very close together, which makes it harder for the molecules to pass through.

This portion of the vestibular apparatus is responsible for dynamic equilibrium.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Semicircular canals

Explanation:

Ear is one of the important sense organ responsible for hearing and equilibrium. Human ear is divided into three parts: outer ear, middle ear and inner ear.

Inner ear is mainly responsible for the equilibrium of the body. Vestibular apparatus together with semicircular canals is responsible for the dynamic equilibrium of the body. Dynamic equilibrium involves head rotation and vertical movements of the body.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

What role does evolution play in the emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria?

tiny-mole [99]

1.Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.

2. Bacteria evolve quickly because they grow fast and can share genes. Helpful mutations spread quickly in bacteria.

3.Taking antibiotics too often or for the wrong reasons can change bacteria so much that antibiotics don't work against them. This is called bacterial resistance or antibiotic resistance

4. Antibiotic resistance leads to higher medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and increased mortality. The world urgently needs to change the way it prescribes and uses antibiotics.
