What property makes phospholipids ideal building blocks for cell membranes?

Biology

Alenkasestr [34]3 years ago

Answer:

The polarity of the phospholipid makes it ideal for a building block of cell membranes.

Explanation:

There is the tails which are hydrophobic (water fearing) and the heads which are hydrophilic (water loving). These properties of phospholipids allow the tails to go towards eachother and heads to face the water which maintains a solid structure allowing certain materials to pass through.

Answer:

They have hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails

Explanation:

Phospholipids are organic compounds that consist of two fatty acid hydrophobic tails and a phosphate hydrophilic head.

These properties help in the regulation of the cellular processes. The hydrophobic tails which is non polar doesn’t react with water while the hydrophilic heads help in interaction with water.

This helps in the movement of particles in and out of the cells and stratification of the cell membrane.

ioda

Answer:

1. Fact: Observations about the world around us. Example: “It’s bright outside.”

Hypothesis: A proposed explanation for a phenomenon made as a starting point for further investigation. Example: “It’s bright outside because the sun is probably out.”

Theory: A well-substantiated explanation acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation. Example: “When the sun is out, it tends to make it bright outside.”

3. As a field of science, biology helps us understand the living world and the ways its many species (including humans) function, evolve, and interact. Advances in medicine, agriculture, biotechnology, and many other areas of biology have brought improvements in the quality of life.

5. Its the ending answer/result of the experiment.

this is what i could get, sorry its not all of them
