Answer:

<em>The correct option is C) Water is repelled by the hydrophobic tails of the phospholipid.</em>

Explanation:

The cell membrane is made up of phospholipids. The phosphates make up the head  and are hydrophilic. The lipids make up the tail and re hydrophobic. The cell membrane is double layered with the heads pointing outwards and the tails embedded inwards. As lipids do not dissolve in water, hence the cell membrane is partially permeable for water. The tails made up of lipids are hydrophobic and hence repel water.

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The intracellular is where enzymes need to perform optimally or near optimum.

Explanation:

The Km is the concentration of molecules where an enzyme performs at half of its maximum velocity (Vmax). Therefore, when molecules are near Km the enzyme is able to hydrolyze molecules nearer its Vmax.
