Energy is either released or absorbed. When an electron jumps from high energy to lower, a photon is emitted or released. when the electron goes from low to high, energy is absorbed.

Answer:

Photon

Explanation:

In any material there are various energy level in which electrons are filled. Suppose there are two energy level in a material. Lower energy level has 1eV energy it means atoms which have 1eV can stay in this energy level.Other energy level has 3eV energy it means atoms which have 3eV energy can stay in this state. If atom from 3eV energy level jumps into 1eV energy level that time atom has to emit its excess energy (3eV-1eV=2eV) in the form of photon because in 1eV energy level atoms which have 2eV energy can stay.

A phospholipid has a glycerol attached to a phosphate group and two fatty acid chains. The head is hydrophilic, and the tail is

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Because they are normally dissolved in water

Explanation:

The phospholipids can act as molecules that are carry inside or outside the cells, to transport it they are dissolved in another hydrophilic media, in this way the hydrophilic part can be in the outside part of the group of moleucles stick together like in cell membranes that are conformed by a double lipidic layer, in which the hydrophobic part it in the inside part. The cells normally are surrounded by different water solutions as the blood or another solutions.
