You are a scientist researching West Nile virus, a mosquito-borne pathogen. You note that a number of cases of West Nile disease
icang [17]

       First of all, let's think about the scientific method, and its processes of how it works.

       It all starts with observation, so we need to check all the data we have and all the information that can be collected to have a good thought on what's going on.

        After gathering enough information, let's think about a hypothesis that could help solving this problem. Well, reading the question, we can check that that region passed through the wettest summer in 100 years, and that's the main problem here, because before this weather, was this disease a problem? I guess not, so this can be a reason, the change in the percentage of water in the air.

         With that said, we need to test if this is true or not, and for that, we'll need mosquitoes with the West Nile virus, and we'll put them in different environments, one that it's wet, and another one that it's not that wet, just like the West Nile problem. This way we can check if this is the problem or not, if it's affecting their reproduction and etc.

PLS HELP!!
Dmitry [639]

The cell membrane separates the intracellular environment from the extracellular environment outside of the cell. A phospholipid is composed of a phosphate group and a lipid. It is composed of a hydrophilic, polar phosphate head and two hydrophobic fatty acid tails.

The structure of the bilayer is such that the tails are shielded from contact with water, creating a selectively-permeable barrier which will be impermeable to most hydrophilic molecules.

So, the answer is A) To maintain balance of water and nutrients in the cell.
