All lipids share this characteristic.

Biology
1 answer:
Pani-rosa [81]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Option B) Lipids generally don't dissolve in water.

Explanation:

All lipids are small biomolecules that are insoluble in water but dissolve readily in nonpolar organic solvents, and contain fatty acids, sterols. So, not all lipids are made of fatty acids and glycerol, and the chemical properties of each lipids depends on their composition.

Thus, all lipids share the characteristics of not dissolving in water.

What would be the expected result if a competitive, nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP were applied to the cytoplasmic side of a plas
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations.

Explanation:

The Na/⁺K⁺ pump is an ATPase pump which is responsible for maintaining low Na⁺ and high K⁺ concentrations within the cytoplasm while maintaining high Na⁺ and low K⁺ concentrations in the extracellular fluid.

Since these two ions are moved against their concentration gradient, ATP hydrolysis is required to provide the energy for this process. This is done by moving in two K⁺ ions  inside while moving three Na⁺ ions outside the cell for every molecule of ATP hydrolysed to ADP and Pi.

If a competitive non-hydrolyzable analog of ATP is applied on the cytoplasmic side of a plasma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump, it will act by inhibiting the action of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump. This will result in an accumulation of Na⁺ ions inside the cell and lower than normal K⁺ ions concentration.

Darwin and wallace's theory of evolution by natural selection was revolutionary because it _____.
Lisa [10]
<span>Notice a couple of things different between (A) and (B). It was NOT the first time a biologist proposed that species changed through time (so it's not B). But it finally *solidified* that idea by giving "change through time" (evolution) a MECHANISM. It gave a plausible explanation for WHY species change over time, in a testable way that made sense and had evidence to support it.

So it finally dismissed the idea that species are constant.

It also emphasized that the simple presence of *variation* within a population was a key reason for evolution.

While we're at it ... (C) is wrong because it's not *individuals* that acclimate (adapt) to their environment, but the population (the species) as a whole.

And (D) is wrong because it had nothing to do with economics or the monarchy.</span>

What are the three types of cell signaling
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

there are 4: paracrine signaling, autocrine signaling, endocrine signaling, and synaptic signaling

Explanation:

paracrine:cells that are near one another communicate through the release of chemical messengers 

autocrine: a cell signals to itself, releasing a ligand that binds to receptors on its own surface 

endocrine:When cells need to transmit signals over long distances, they often use the circulatory system as a distribution network for the messages they send. 

synaptic: nerve cells transmit signals. The junction between two nerve cells where signal transmission occurs.
