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.

Minch Grinch Company sells 2 cats in a hat to a customer for $10,000, and allows the customer to pay on credit card. The credit
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Debit to accounts receivable $9,800, Debit to credit card Discount $200 and credit to sales revenue $10,000

Explanation:

Given that the credit card charges 2%; then the discount rate = \frac{2}{100}*10,000

= 0.02 × 10,000

= 200

The account receivable = $10,000 - $200

= $9,800

From the foregoing, it is obvious that the sale revenue would not be affected by this transaction. SO, the sale revenue = $10,000

the ability of the kidneys to remove molecules from the blood plasma by excreting them in the urine is known as .
DIA [1.3K]

the ability of the kidneys to remove molecules from the blood plasma by excreting them in the urine is known as Glomerular filtration. one can estimate the efficiency of Glomerular by GFR Glomerular filtration rate

Measuring measured GFR (mGFR) is a difficult and time-consuming method that is not practicable for patients or doctors, making it difficult to obtain an accurate GFR level. Because of this, medical experts utilise a formula to determine GFR (eGFR). For diagnosing renal disease, which frequently has no symptoms until right before the kidneys fail, accurate estimates of GFR are crucial. A straightforward blood test that evaluates your creatinine levels is the typical method for estimating GFR. The regular breakdown of muscle tissue and the digestion of food protein both produce creatinine, a waste product. In addition to CKD, other factors such as food, muscle mass, or the weight of your muscles, malnutrition, and other chronic conditions can also have an impact on creatinine levels.
