Brain Ischemia which is definetly fatal as the cells of the cerebrum will start to respire anaerobically and eventually the building up of lactic acid will be fatal
Answer:
<h2>2. Peter's maternal grandfather has PKU.</h2>
Explanation:
- Such type of the genetic disorder in which two copies of a gene must be mutated at a time is called autosomal recessive disorder such as sickle cell anemia, phenylketonuria, and some other diseases.
- When a sing copy of a gene is mutated in a person then this disorder is not appeared and the person is called a carrier.
- So when a child is born by two carrier parents then there is a chance that a child will be affected if both the parents donate mutated genes.
- In the case of Peter, since peter does not show this defect this means his maternal grandfather was affected by this disorder.
Answer:
b. a semi-permeable double layer of phospholipids that have hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails
Explanation:
B is correct as the cell membrane is selectively semi-permeable. It is selectively semi-permeable because this quality allows it to control what can and can't enter the cell, and how it does so.
The cell membrane also has a phospholipid bi-layer comprised of a double layer of phospholipids which have hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tails. This is because the heads are made of phosphate and are polar and are therefore attracted to water (hydrophilic), while the tails are made of lipids (i.e. fats, oils) which do not mix with water and are therefore hydrophobic.
The properties of each phospholipid is also why they form the double layer structure, the hydrophilic heads naturally face outwards into the water and protect the hydrophobic tails on the inside.
Hope this helped!
