fiasKO [112]

The change in weather pattern caused forest to become sparse and hot weather caused the reduction of apes as they had less food and difficulty in surviving the climate.

Explanation:

In Miocene epoch volcanic mountain chains were created in Central Africa which abruptly changed the local weather.

The sea-level got drop due to global cooling of that time.

This resulted in continental drift making land connection of Africa with Eurasia.

The primates started migrating through this route.

The African forest become dry causing selective pressures in primates.

The cooler climate in Eurasia caused extinction and migration of primates to Africa in late Miocene epoch.

The hot and humid climate and less woodland caused a reduction in number of apes which were replaced by modern world monkeys.

<h2>Answer is option "A"</h2>

Explanation:

  • Oils and fats, which in science are called lipids, are known as amphipathic molecules. These molecules have two distinct ends to them: a water-loving (hydrophilic) side and a water-fearing (hydrophobic) side. While the hydrophilic sides of a lipid will associate with the water in a solution, the hydrophobic sides of the lipid all cluster together to 'hide' from the water. Lipids therefore cluster together and form spheres where the hydrophobic sides are in the center away from the water while the hydrophilic sides are on the outside, associating with the water.
  • The ability of the atoms within a group to form hydrogen bonds with the water molecules around them makes them hydrophilic. Oxygen and nitrogen atoms readily form hydrogen bonds with water molecules, so any organic molecules that have oxygen or nitrogen atoms bound to their carbon skeletons will be hydrophilic.
  • For example, if we take the molecule for cholesterol, we see the OH group on the left is hydrophilic and will form hydrogen bonds with water, while the ring structures, which only consist of hydrogen and carbon atoms, are hydrophobic and will not associate with the water.
  • There are many different kinds of lipids with different functions. Lets start by examining phospholipids, which compose the cell membranes of animals. They form lipid bilayers, with one set of hydrophilic heads facing the exterior of the cell membrane and the other set facing the interior (as you can see on the diagram on screen). The hydrophobic portions of the lipid bilayer - the lipid tails - face towards one another, which allows them to hide away from the water inside and outside of the cell.
  • So,the right answer is option A "amphipathic molecules".
