Answer

The correct answer is option B

B. Permeability to glucose will increase.

Explanation:

A phospholipid bilayer is a thin polar membrane comprising two lipid molecules. It regulates the diffusion of ions and proteins and is impermeable to most water molecules. A balances amount of saturated and unsaturated phospholipid regulates the permeability of glucose, allowing only a specific amount to pass through but when there's more unsaturation, permeability increases.

Which of the following statements is true about Tiktaalik?
yawa3891 [41]

Tiktaalik is a transitional fossil which shows how fish evolved into amphibians and reptiles. So the correct option is B.

What is Tiktaalik?

Tiktaalik is a direct ancestor of tetrapods or four-legged animals. It is an extinct fish-like animal and it lived on earth 380-385 million years ago (Devonian period).

The word Tiktaalik is derived from the <em>Inuktitut</em> language which loosely translates to large freshwater fish. This animal had characteristics of both fish and tetrapod and is therefore called the link between these two kinds of animals.

The characters resembling fish are gills and scales and the characters resembling tetrapods are rib bones, movable neck and lungs. There are characters that are a mix of both tetrapods and fish. These are bones and joints in limbs but fish-like fins instead of feet or hands.
