Answer:

Perfectly in theory, except there is chance involved

Explanation:

The Punnet square is a diagram that allows scientists to predict the possible outcomes of the offspring when the genotypes of the parents are known. This is in line with Mendel's principles, and from a theoretical point of view would match up perfectly. However, it all works based on <em>probability</em>.

However, inheritance is always down to chance. Of your parents 2 alleles, you always have 50:50 chance of inheriting one of the allele. Overall, this is what is predicted in punnet squares.

However, think about flipping a coin. There is always 50:50 chance of getting heads, but that doesn't mean it is impossible to flip a coin and get tails 10 x in a row. It is just less likely. So in reality, observations might deviate from the theory.

guajiro [1.7K]

<u>Answer</u>:  

The organic chemicals that helps cell membranes to conserve the internal fluids are phospholipids.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Phospholipids are used to form plasma membrane of the cell. Plasma membrane surrounds the cell contents like various cell organelles, nucleus, ribosomes and proteins. A phospholipid molecules is made up if a polar head containing a phosphate group and the two non-polar tails made of long chains of hydrocarbon of fatty acids.

The another name for plasma membrane is phospholipid bilayer. The polar head is hydrophilic that interactes with polar environment while facing outside the bilayer while the non-polar tail is hydrophobic in nature which makes the internal hydrophobic region of cell membrane which faces inside the bilayer.

choli [55]

The right answer is glutamate

Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter associated with learning and memory.

It is also associated with Alzheimer's disease whose first symptoms are felt in memory.

Most people unknowingly consume monosodium glutamate (MSG), a commonly used food additive.

An experiment was done on healthy patients, giving them 12 grams of glutamate. It was found that the experience led to headaches, nausea or jaw pain in 50-60% of cases.

It was also measured the level of glutamate contained in the muscles of patients with jaw problems. The tests concluded that the most painful muscles were those containing the highest levels of glutamate.

According to him, one of the keys to chronic pain could lie in the development of drugs that reduce the rate of glutamate.
