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.

Compare a natural meadow with a cornfield in terms of biodiversity. in your answer, be sure to address the: • number of species
Mademuasel [1]

In a cornfield, only one plant species has dominated the area, that is the corn plant. While in a natural meadow, multiple species of plants occurs of different species. The presence of the different types of plants in the meadow will interact more number of insects in it as compared to the corn field. This will lead to more interactions among the different species in a natural meadow. The greater biodiversity of the natural meadow than the cornfield will support it better.

In case of any natural disaster, or a pest attack, all the plants will be killed in a corn field and so will the insects dependent on them, but in a natural meadow, if one plant species is killed by a natural disaster, other will still be alive. Hence, the ability to survive is greater in natural meadow.
