Answer:
B
Explanation:
The fatty acid tails of phospholipids are hydrophobic – meaning they are ‘water-hating’. This is why they are in the middle of the bi-lipid layer of the cell membrane 'hiding' from the 'watery' environment of a cell. This poses a challenge in the diffusion of large and charged molecules across the membrane -such as sodium ions. Such molecules need transmembrane protein channels to help them cross the membrane. These are called integral proteins because they are part and parcel of the cell membrane. The cell membrane, in addition, also has glycolipids and glycoproteins on its surface that are significant in the identification of the cell by other cells.
Shivering
Explanation: shivering action is an act to warm a homoeothermic body. Sweating makes the body cool, panting don’t keep body warm and dilating blood vessels does not keep body warm instead constriction of blood vessels is the initial process to conserve body heat followed by waves of muscle contraction, which is nothing but shivering. Alteration of the set point in torpor is also not the right answer
The answer is C, since antibiotics will not effect viruses, only bacterial infections.
Hi!
The answers would be 1. (D) and 2. (B)
<h3>Explanation of Answer 1</h3>
Ice cores are in essence drilled cylinders that are acquired from glaciers or ice sheets. Ice sheets and glaciers are formed over many years as a result of deposits of snow layers. As these layers form, the lower layers become denser with each new layer, owing to pressure, and in the process it traps the air, which is preserved in the form of bubbles in the layer, therein preserving the composition of the air at a particular period of time. Scientists use ice cores to compare the atmospheric composition of previous years to those of recent years, and the gas mainly studied is carbon dioxide owing to its bringing about a climatic change.
<h3>Explanation of Answer 2</h3>
The Earth's orbit is caused by the gravitational attraction that is present between the Earth and the Sun, but changes due to the shape of the orbit (eccentricity), the wobble of the Earth about its axis (precession), and the axial tilt of the Earth (obliquity). These cause a change in the Earths orbit, which give rise to Milankovitch's cycles. Milankovitch's Cycles describes a revolutionary movement of the Earth around the Sun. These cycles are observed to be determinants of the climate of the Earth, in the regard of how much heat or energy the Earth is exposed to.
Hope this helps!
