The correct answer is: A) The polarity of membrane phospholipids
Factors that affect membrane permeability are
1. Chemicals :
Some of the organic solvents such as chloroform and ethanol can dissolve the membrane and thus, destroy the selective permeability of the membrane.
2. Temperature :
 Too high temperatures denature the protein that are in the structure of the membrane destroying its selective permeability. On the other hand, too low temperature slows down molecule movements and the permeability decreases.
3. Cholesterol:
 Increases the permeability by reducing the barrier formed by phospholipids’ heads
4. The saturation of hydrocarbon tails in membrane phospholipids:
Saturated fatty acids decrease permeability of the membrane because  they get very close together, which makes it harder for the molecules to pass through.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
C. The cows will reproduce, but neither males nor females will reproduce the altered gene.
Explanation:
I just had this question lol but because it said in the question “However, they discovered that the altered gene gets lost from the genome during meiosis.” Shows that the cows aren’t able to reproduce the altered gene. It never stated they can’t reproduce.

<span>The deposition of heavy sediment can significantly diminish the water quality and aquatic habitat.  The sentiment in the water can reduce the sunlight that reaches the floor of the waterway, affecting animal and plant life. For example, photosynthesis may be less effective due to the decreased sunlight and the gills of fish may get clogged from the sediment.</span>
