mote1985 [20]

Answer:

D

an increase in the length of the fatty acid tails.

Explanation:

As average annual temperatures decrease, we would expect to find phospholipids within the cell membranes of organisms to have both saturated

and unsaturated fatty acid tails. Saturated fatty acids tails are arranged linearly, in a way that maximizes interactions between the tails and

decreases bilayer fluidity. Unsaturated fatty acids, on the other hand, have more distance between the tails, fewer intermolecular interactions and

more membrane fluidity. Longer tails and decreased cholesterol also decrease fluidity

Purple petal color in pea plants is dominant to white petal color. Two heterozygous pea plants are crossed. What ratio of the of
Paladinen [302]

Mendel crossed the dominant purple colour flowered plant with the recessive white colour flowered plant. The F 1 generation produced the heterozygous purple colour flowered (Pp) plants. When two heterozygous pea plants (Pp) are crossed in the F2 generation represented by Pp x Pp, the gametes formed are P and p. Out of the offspring produced, 3 are purple colour flowered plants and 1 is white colour flowered plant. Thus the phenotypic ratio is 3: 1 with one out of four plants being white colour flowered pea plant. When expressed in percentage it is 25%.
