Cholesterol in Cell membrane  strengthens and helps to maintain the fluid nature of a cell regardless of temperature

<u>Explanation:</u>

All organisms are made up of one or more cells. Each cell is protected or differentiated by a covering called as the cell membrane. Phospholipids are the basic structure of the cell membrane. Cholesterol prevents the loss of fluid from phospholipids.  

Cell membrane has a lipid layer and cholesterol which is placed between the phospholipids to maintain the fluid nature of the cell under different temperature. Cholesterol prevents the cell from solidifying and helps maintain the fluid. Cholesterol actually acts as a buffer between different temperatures.

Explain how chromosome behavior during meiosis ensures transfer of parental traits to offspring
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Explanation:

During meiosis, sister chromosomes of a homologous pair separate into different cells during gamete formation . This mainly occurs in Metaphase I of meiosis where the homologous chromosomes line up the metaphase plate in their sets. Each chromosomes of a pair are then pulled to different poles of the cells separating them. Each of these chromosomes carries a set of alleles of a gene. Each cell/gamete, therefore, carried half the set of alleles of all genes compared to autosomal cells. There many combinations of these sets that can occur depending on the number of chromosomes the organism has.

These cells when combined with that of another parent during fertilization, form a zygote that grows and develops into a mature organism. The offspring will bear the characteristics of both parents because it inherits half a set of chromosomes from both parents.

Tom [10]
Let's think of it like this.  We have an energy crisis, but how can we solve it?  There are three steps.  First, we need to recognize that we HAVE a problem that needs to be fixed.  Then, we need to determine what's causing the problem.  Finally, we need to change how we act in order to solve the problem.  Now, let's look at the options.

Is A correct, leaving our behavior unchanged?  NO: if we know the cause of the problem, we still need to solve it!  What about B: the problems are ignored?  NO: you can't solve a problem unless you know it's a problem.  C?  NO: to solve a problem, you need to find out what's causing it.  Finally, let's look at D: behavior is changed after cause is identified.  This is correct: not only do we know why it's happening, but we're fixing it!
