(d) </span>A closed system can experience an increase in entropy only when<span> irreversibilities are present within the </span>system<span> during the process.</span>
A, an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
The permeability of the membrane
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- The fluidity and the permeability of cell membrane must be maintained within a certain range for the cell to function properly.
- The permeability of cell membrane depends on a number of factors, among them is the degree of saturation of fatty acids tails making up phospholipids.
- Phospholipid tails can be saturated or unsaturated. Saturated tails have no double bonds and as a result have straight, unkinked tails, while unsaturated tails have double bonds and, as a result, have crooked, kinked tails.
- Interactions between tails are maximized in the case of saturated tails, thus decreasing membrane fluidity and permeability, while unsaturated tails increases membrane fluidity.
