The answer is A. To attract a mate

Peacock's tail feathers are colorful and each peacock's colors are different. They use these colors to catch the attention of a mate. The more colored and the bigger feathered males attract more females for mating.

A person had bread and butter for his breakfast. Trace the changes in the main components of these during its passage through th
Papessa [141]

When the bread and butter is in mouth, mechanical digestion starts. The size of the food gets reduced and it mixes with saliva for easy swallowing. The salivary amylase in saliva begins the digestion of starch in the bread. This is the start of chemical digestion. When the undigested bread and butter reached the stomach, lower esophageal sphincter relaxes and allow the chewed food to enter. The gastric secretions containing HCl, acts on the undigested food to produce chime. HCl kill the microorganism on the food and also denatures the protein and later attacked by digestive enzyme pepsin. Pepsin breakdown protein in the bread, butter . Later on gastric lipase begins to digest fat present in butter. Digestion of the starch in bread does not occur in the stomach because the salivary amylase that began chemical digestion in mouth became inactive in the presence of HCl. Further the chime enters the small intestine where bile secreted by the gall bladder emulsifies the fat and break into small globule which helps in fat absorption.

what role will nature selection most likely have in the frequency of the alleles responsible for the presence of tissue pockets
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Through natural selection, those organisms which have better adaptations to survive in an environment are able to live and pass on their alleles to their offsprings. Hence, any trait which is beneficial to an organism will be favoured by natural selection.

As tissue pockets is a trait which is required by the shrimps, hence with the passage of time shrimp population having tissue pockets will increase and will be favoured by nature.

An internal membrane system where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled, along with proteins and other materials
MakcuM [25]
A. Lipid bilayer: the phospholipid bilayer is the membrane of a cell. The bilayer contains lipids, membrane proteins, cholesterol, receptors for various molecules, pumps to transport ions and solutes against the concentration gradient, and many other items necessary for a cell to function and work together with other cells.

b. Osmotic pressure: Osmosis is the flow of water across a semipermeable barrier from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration. Osmotic pressure is the lowest possible pressure to prevent this water movement.

c. Endoplasmic Reticulum: the Rough ER synthesizes proteins for use outside the cell. The Smooth ER produces lipids and some steroidal hormones.

A. Lipid Bilayer is therefore the correct answer. Osmotic pressure does not involve the various components of the cell membrane, and the ER's produce proteins and hormones. Therefore A is right.

Hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need a clarification.
