Answer: Valves in the veins

Explanation: The flow of the blood inside the body takes place through the veins and arteries. The oxygenated blood from the heart is supplied to the different parts of the body.

The blood flows from the capillaries to the venules and from there to the veins. The blood moves in the veins by the rhythmic movement of the smooth muscles in the body.

Most of the blood moves against the gravity so there is a chance that it can backflow so to prevent this there are valves in the veins known as one way valves.

What property makes phospholipids ideal building blocks for cell membranes?
Papessa [141]

Answer:

<u> They have hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails.</u>

Explanation:

Phospholipid membranes are comprised of a chain of lipids. These typically are arranged in a bilayer; the hydrophilic lipid heads are polar, and face outwards, while the hydrophobic tails are polar facing inwards.

The membranes are selectively permeable, and only allow the movement of small, non-polar molecules through the bilayer.
