Xelga [282]

Answer;

-Synovial cavity

Explanation;

-The synovial cavity/joint is filled with synovial fluid. A synovial joint contains a synovial cavity and dense, irregular connective tissue that forms the articular capsule normally associated with accessory ligaments.

-A synovial joint occurs at articulating bones to allow movement. It is distinguished by a surrounding synovial capsule.The bones of a synovial joint are surrounded by a synovial capsule, which secretes synovial fluid to lubricate and nourish the joint while acting as a shock absorber.

As a molecule moves through the plasma membrane it passes through a hydrophobic layer of phospholipid tails then a hydrophilic l
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

"As a molecule moves through the plasma membrane it passes through <em>a hydrophilic layer of phospholipid heads then a hydrophobic layer of phospholipid tails and then another hydrophilic layer of phospholipid heads".</em>

Explanation:

Biological membranes are formed by two lipidic layers, proteins, and glucans.

Lipids characterize for being amphipathic molecules, which means that they have both a hydrophilic portion and a hydrophobic portion at the same time. These molecules have a lipidic head that corresponds to a negatively charged phosphate group, which is the polar and hydrophilic portion. They also have two lipidic tails that correspond to the hydrocarbon chains -the apolar and hydrophobic portion- of the fatty acids that esterify glycerol.

Membrane lipids are arranged with their hydrophilic polar heads facing the exterior and the interior of the cells, while their hydrophobic tails are against each other, constituting the internal part of the membrane.

Through this lipidic bilayer, some molecules can move from one side of the cell to the other, which happens because of concentration differences. When this occurs, molecules must pass through the hydrophilic layer of phospholipid heads then through the hydrophobic layer of phospholipid tails and then again through another hydrophilic layer of phospholipid heads.

GarryVolchara [31]
<span>Sugar is carbohydrates, fats are lipids, amino acids are proteins, and nucleotides are nucleic acid. They're all about the same healthiness because everyone needs all four for their diet. Carbohydrates give us energy, lipids provide energy, protein builds our structure, and nucleic acid stores our genetic information.</span>
