Answer:

Phospholipids

Explanation:

Phospholipids make the bilayer of the cell membrane. Phospholipids are polar components that have a head which is hydrophilic and a tale that is hydrophobic. When they make the bilayer of the membrane cell the heads of the phospholipids are orientated to the exterior and the inside of the cell while the tales are touching each other and not having any contact with the exterior or interior of the cell.

The arctic fox is different from the brown fox. The color of the arctic fox’s fur changes to brown during the summer. The fur re
Fofino [41]
The Arctic Fox lives in the Arctic Tundra (more or less around Alaska, Iceland I think, and other places like that). During the winter, their fur is very thick and solid white (not always SOLID but generally speaking). During the summer and spring, their fur turns brown.

1. Of course, during the winter in those regions, it's going to be snowing and ice is going to be all over the ground. By having a white coat, they're able to blend in and hide from predators, such as the Arctic Wolf and Polar Bears. By turning brown, they'll be able to blend in with the dirt after the snow and ice melts, and again, hide from predators. For the other fox, their brown coat blends in with the dirt, trees, dead leaves, etc. and they'll be able to hide from prey and predators alike. 

2. The Arctic Fox also has very thick fur during the winter, which allows it to survive the extreme temperatures. They also dig burrows in the snow for shelter in blizzards. This gives them the ability to survive natural disasters (at least one of them).

I can't think of a third one but these should give you a pretty good idea of how their adaptations help them survive. I really love the Arctic fox so I know quite a bit about them. I really hope this helps you.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Yes, our body is made up of four Macromolecules.

Explanation:

Yes, the claim of the student is right that Macromolecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids makeup the human body because all the cells are made up of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. We know that our body is made up of cells so we can say that our body is made up of four Macromolecules. For example, our muscles are made up of protein, the fats present in our body are the lipids, carbohydrates are stored in the form of glycogen In liver and nucleic acids are present in the form of DNA and RNA.
