Answer:

The correct answer is D)

Membrane proteins <u>DO NOT</u> produce phospholids.                                                                                                                                                                            

Explanation:

Phospholipids are a category of lipids that are a key part of all cell membranes. They can form lipid bilayers because of their amphiphilic characteristic. The structure of the phospholipid molecule generally consists of two hydrophobic fatty acid "tails" and a hydrophilic "head" consisting of a phosphate group. The two components are usually joined together by a glycerol molecule.

The first phospholipid identified in 1847 by the French chemist and pharmacist Theodore Nicolas Gobley, in biological tissues was lecithin, or phosphatidylcholine, in the egg yolk of chickens. Purified phospholipids are produced commercially and have found applications in nanotechnology and materials science.                                  

Cheers!

Answer: D)

Membrane proteins produce phospholids

Explanation:

Membrane proteins in the mitochondria do more than just generate cellular energy. The proteins in the membranes of the mitochondria are complex machines in the nanoworld that mediate the oxygen-coupled generation of energy in cells. Their role in this process is not yet understood in detail.

Membrane proteins perform a variety of functions vital to the survival of organisms: Membrane receptor proteins relay signals between the cell's internal and external environments. Transport proteins move molecules and ions across the membrane.

Chemicals can be dissolved in water that seeps into the soil and enters the aquifer.
fgiga [73]

Explanation:

The chemicals are contaminant in the ground water system and they can inflict serious health hazards on humans when water is sourced from such polluted ground water system.

  • Consuming contaminated water can lead to cholera and diarrhea.
  • It makes ground water toxic and poisonous.
  • Drinking contaminated ground water can lead to the introduction of heavy metals in the body.
  • Chemical wastes containing radioactive materials can damage body tissues.
  • They render ground water unsafe for drinking ans usage.
