Answer:
Explanation:
A fall in temperature can also adversely affect cell and cell membranes. At low temperatures, the phospholipids' fatty acid tails are moving less and stiffer. This reduces the membrane's overall fluidity as well as reduces its permeability and perhaps limits the entry into the cells of vital chemicals like oxygen and glucose. Also, low temperatures can impede cell development by preventing cell size expansion.
In severe cases, such long term exposure to sub-freezing temperatures, fluid in the cell can start solidifying and can form crystals that breach the membrane and destroy the cell.
Answer:
a) epigenetic change.
Explanation:
Epigenetic is referred to changes BESIDES the changes in the genetic changes. It means, not related to mutations but to chemical changes such as methylation, acetylation, ubiquitylation, phosphorylation, that can interfere with the genetic expression. Chromatin modification is another way of epigenetic change.
