Answer: Normal body temperature

Explanation:

The lipid bilayer shows free lateral movement of its components, this makes the membrane to be fluid in nature.

Certain conditions increases or decreases the fluidity of membrane

1. Temperature: at about the normal body temperature 37 degrees celsius the membrane is fluidity increses and at lower temperature the membrane becomes more viscous.

2. Cholesterol content of the membrane alters the fluidity. When cholesterol concentration increases the membrane becomes less fluid on the outer surface but more fluid in the hydrophobic core.

3. The nature of fatty acids also affects the fluidity of the membrane, the more unsaturated cis fatty acids increase the fluidity. While trans fatty acids decreases fluidity.

What is the role of dna replication in the process of cellular reproduction?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Most cells grow, perform the activities needed to survive, and divide to create new cells. These basic processes, known collectively as the cell cycle, are repeated throughout the life of a cell. Of the various parts of the cell cycle, the division portion is particularly important, because this is the point at which a cell passes its genetic information to its offspring cells. In many situations, division also ensures that new cells are available to replace the older cells within an organism whenever those cells die. Prokaryotic cells, which include bacteria, undergo a type of cell division known as binary fission. This process involves replication of the cell's chromosomes, segregation of the copied DNA, and splitting of the parent cell's cytoplasm. The outcome of binary fission is two new cells that are identical to the original cell.
