Answer:

Hydrophillic head and a hydrophobic tail

Explanation:

Every fatty acid is composed of long chain of hydrocarbon tail. This hydrocarbon tail is nonpolar and insoluble in water. Hence this tail is labeled 'hydrophobic'.

However, the head of the fatty acid contains polar COOH group which is capable of interacting with water, hence the head is hydrophillic.

Hence, a fatty acid is composed of a hydrophillic head and a hydrophobic tail.

The label on a bag of salt-free pretzels indicates that their chips are "low-fat." this means the pretzels provide 3 gram(s) of fat or less per serving.

Low-fat diets are diets in which the fats are reduced. Low-fat diets are produced in order to prevent diseases such as obesity and heart diseases. Food manufacturers usually use nutrient claims such as '‘low fat’' to indicate the nutritional value of their products. A ‘low fat’ food contains not more than 3g of fat per 100g of food  (for solids) and not more than 1.5g fat per 100g (for liquids).

Drupady [299]

Answer:

The new drug will not be effective against the treatment of cancer.

Explanation:

The drug will not be effective against the cancer treatment because the drug will inhibit the dimerization of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) but as the Ras has undergone mutation due to replacement of one amino acid, it will be constitutively expressed and the drug is not effective in stopping the Ras functioning.

Thus, Gefitinib cannot work against the cancerous cell as it is not potent to stop the functioning of mutant Ras protein.
