Water is polar. Lipids are non-polar.
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.
Answer:
A. 1/16
Explanation:
If we break the dihybrid cross of AaBb X AaBb into individual monohybrid crosses:
Aa X Aa :
A a
A AA Aa
a Aa aa
1/4 of the progeny will be homozygous for dominant allele (AA)
Similarly, in cross Bb X Bb 1/4 of the progeny will be homozygous for dominant allele (BB)
Hence, in cross AaBb X AaBb:
1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16 will be homozygous for both the dominant alleles.
Answer:
Explanation:
Inbreeding results which can increase the chances of offspring being affected by deleterious or recessive traits. This usually leads to at least temporarily decreased biological fitness of a population (called inbreeding depression), which is its ability to survive and reproduce.
The earth has layers and is composed of four layers. The
four layers of the earth are namely, crust, mantle, the outer core and the
inner core. The core in the layers of the earth serves as the central region.
The mantle is the earth’s solid bulk in terms of its interior. The inner and
outer core are composed minerals and are the third and fourth layer in the
earth.
