Which of the following statements about the movement of lipids in the bilayer is true? a) Lipids are free to flip from one plane
to the other of a bilayer b) All of the above c) Lipids are free to rotate within one plane of a bilayer d) Lipids are free to move within one plane of a bilayer e) Only A and B.
Nowadays it is known that the lipid bilayer of the cells is not static, actually, the modern Fluid-Mosaic membrane model establishes that the lipids move constantly within the lipid bilayer. The lipids are able to rotate within its axis, the lipids are able to movement laterally moving from one site to the other within the same plane, and also can move from a plane to the other plane in what is known as transverse "flip flop" movement.
Absorption is a process that takes place in the small intestines or ileum of the GI tract, in which simple and soluble nutrients are absorbed into the blood stream.
Absorption is enhanced by several adaptations of the gut such as large surface area of the gut which directly facilitates absorption of nutrients.
Presence of villi and microvilli in the gut increases the surface area for absorption of nutrients in the ileum.
Explanation: A codon is a triplet of nucleotides in an mRNA that codes for specific amino acids. There are 64 possible codons. They are called the genetic codes. Three of these codons (UAA, UAG, UGA) do not code any known amino acid and are thus called termination codons. One of the codons (AUG) signals the beginning of translation and is thus called initiation codon.
