Answer:

D. can control the transport of small molecules and ions.

Explanation:

Bilayers are critical components of cell membranes. The lipid bilayer acts as a barrier to the passage of molecules and ions into and out of the cell. However, an important function of the cell membrane is to allow selective passage of certain substances into and out of cells.

The lipid bilayers are highly permeable to non-polar (fat-soluble) molecules. The permeability of the bilayers to polar (water soluble) molecules is very low, and the permeability is particularly low to large polar molecules. The permeability to charged molecular species (ions) is very low.

Which of the following sets represents a pair of isotopes?
son4ous [18]
The correct option is A,
Isotopes are atoms of an element, which have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. Thus, isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass number.
Looking at the options given above, you will discover that Chlorine which is given in option A is correct. Both type of chlorine has the same atomic number, which is 17, but they have different atomic masses, the atomic mass of the first one is 35 while that of the second one is 37.<span />

Rank the following from lowest to highest anticipated boiling point: C8H18, CH, C16H34,CH4,C4H10
viva [34]
<span>The relative strength of intermolecular forces such as ionic, hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole interaction and Vander Waals dispersion force affects the boiling point of a compound. For this case, the longer the chain the higher the boiling point. 

</span>CH, CH4, C4H10, C8H18, C16H34
