Answer:

<em>In order to ensure consistent membrane fluidity</em>

Explanation:

<h3>Cold Blooded Animals</h3>

Cold-blooded animals rely on the temperature of the surrounding environment to maintain its internal temperature, their blood is not cold.  Their body temperature fluctuates,  based on the external temperature of the environment. If it  is 30 °F outside, their body temperature  will eventually normalize to  30 °F, as well. If it eventually rises to 120 °F, their body temperature will follow the same pattern to 120 °F.

<h3>Membrane fluidity</h3>

The cell membrane of cold-blooded animals contains cholesterol, which acts as a shield for the membrane. Membrane fluidity is enhanced by temperature, as the temperature increases membrane fluidity increases and it decreases when the temperature goes down.

<em>Most cold-blooded animals adjust their feeding habit to contain  more </em><em>unsaturated fats</em><em> from plants. This helps them to maintain their </em><em>motor coordination and membrane </em><em> fluidity during the long winter</em>

Cold-blooded animals modulate the fatty acid composition of their membrane to stabilize their membrane fluidity

    The  temperature  at   which  the  process  be   spontaneous  is  calculated  as  follows

delta  G  =  delta H  -T delta S

let  delta G  be =0

therefore  delta H- T  delta s =0

therefore  T=  delta  H/  delta  S
convert  31   Kj  to  J  =  31  x1000=  31000 j/mol

Answer:

Bonding in chemistry is known as chemical bonding which means the interaction or attraction between molecules.

Chemical bonds are of different type such as ionic, covalent, hydrogen, and metallic. Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of valence electron from one atom to other and there is unequal distribution of electrons between two or more atoms. Ionic bonds forms two oppositely charges ions positively charged (loses electron) or negatively charged (gains electron).

Covalent bond are the strong chemical bonds that form due to equal sharing of electron pairs between atoms. They form a stable element and have stable attraction or repulsive forces.

How many neutrons dose O^-2 have
ElenaW [278]
Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table. This means that oxygen has 8 protons<span> and 8 electrons. In order to get the number of neutrons you take the atomic weight in this case 15.9999~16 and you subtract it by the number of protons (16-8) (o_O)
