Answer:C). A phospholipid bilayer with proteins

Explanation: A cell membrane is a phospholipid bilayer with proteins embedded in it. The fatty acyl chains of the phospholipids are non polar and hydrophobic while the phosphate groups are polar and hydrophilic. The hydrophobic regions of the phospholipids interact with each by facing each other, forming a bilayer with a fluid interior. The polar head groups face outward interacting with the external environment of the cell. Proteins are embedded in this bilayer and they float in this sea of phospholipids. Proteins anchored to the membrane through interactions between the hydrophobic regions of the phospholipids and the amino acid side chains of the proteins. These lipids and proteins swim laterally in each face of the bilayer but movement from one face of the bilayer to another is restricted.

To help sort out those bacteria that have the vgp gene, scientists first attempt to grow the bacteria both in a medium with ampi
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

bacteria with No Plasmid -----------------will grow ONLY in medium without ampicillin.

"nonrecombinant gene, recombinant plasmid with vgp gene,", recombinant plasmid but no vgp gene-----------------------will grow in both media".

it means Plasmid have ampicillin resistance gene. So if we use medium with ampicillin so it will allow the growth of only those bacterai which have transformed plasmid (containing amp resistance gene).

 so having gene or not, recombinant or recombinant dosnt matter,  all the other s will grow in both type of medium as far as plasmid is transformed in to it.

N your own words, describe why animals are eukaryotic organisms, and why we say their cells are advanced and
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The animal kingdom is unique among eukaryotic organisms because most animal tissues are bound together in an extracellular matrix by a triple helix of protein known as collagen. Plant and fungal cells are bound together in tissues or aggregations by other molecules, such as pectin.

Explanation:

The ability to maintain different environments inside a single cell allows eukaryotic cells to carry out complex metabolic reactions that prokaryotes cannot. In fact, it's a big part of the reason why eukaryotic cells can grow to be many times larger than prokaryotic ones.

Hope this helps!!!!!
