We now know that they have unique physical, chemical, and genetic traits that set them apart from plants and other eukaryotes. For example, the cell walls of fungi are made of chitin, not cellulose. Also, fungi absorb nutrients from other organisms, whereas plants make their own food.
Punnett squares are used to find out the possible genotypes of the next generation after a cross and thus find the phenotype too according to the predicted genotypes.
For example, parents with genotypes of Rr and rr cross together, we can use the punnett square to list out the possible genotypes of their children which are Rr and rr.
You can never predict the exact genotypes of the next child but you can find out the possibility if they carry a certain trait. All the genotypes of the child are in random but you at least know what phenotypes they'll have.
Answer:
<u>
They have hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails.</u>
Explanation:
Phospholipid membranes are comprised of a chain of lipids. These typically are arranged in a bilayer; the hydrophilic lipid heads are polar, and face outwards, while the hydrophobic tails are polar facing inwards.
The membranes are selectively permeable, and only allow the movement of small, non-polar molecules through the bilayer.
