About Phospholipid:
Cells are surrounded by a very important type of lipid called phospholipid. Phospholipid consists of hydrophilic (water loving) head and hydrophobic ( water fearing) tail. Phospholipid like to line up and arrange themselves into two parallel layers called phospholipid bilayer.
Importance of phospholipid:
Forms bilayer which provides barrier around the cell and only let in certain molecules like carbondioxide and oxygen necessary for cellular respiration.
During digestive process phospholipid form clusters to help move vitamins, nutrients and fat containing molecules through the body.
They can be used as signal transducer between cells.
They split to form product called second messenger, that can signal for leukocyte to migrate to the site of infection.
Phospholipid that is both structural and functional is sphingomyelin, forms the insulation that protect your nerves and facilitates the conduction of nerve impulses.
Phospholipid in stomach helps in breaking down the fat.
Phospholipid in bile help emulsify fats so they can be carried in blood.
Answer:
Label A. is probably Mitochondria, and Label B. is probably the nucleaus, but Im not sure about C. The ribisome or the endopplasmic reticulam, maybe??
Explanation:
Answer: The effect will be either an abnormal protein, a non functional protein or a protein with altered function or functions.
Explanation: Every protein performs at least one specific function. Example is the case of sickle cell disease where a protein called haemoglobin which is responsible for oxygen transport in the body is mutated. In the sickle haemoglobin, valine replaces glutamate at position six of the two beta chains. Haemoglobin is a protein with four subunits made up of two alpha chains and two beta chains. The substitution of glutamate residue withwresults valine results in the haemoglobin having low affinity for oxygen binding and consequently, inefficient supply of oxygen to the cells.
to be honest I just wanted to say nice profile pic okay I'll leave u alone now
The branch of biology dealing with interactions along organisms and between organisms and their environment is called Ecology, I believe.
