Molecules that are hydrophilic (water loving) are capable of forming bonds with water and other hydrophilic molecules. They are called polar molecules. ... Small, nonpolar molecules (ex: oxygen and carbon dioxide) can pass through the lipid bilayer and do so by squeezing through the phospholipid bilayers.

Explanation:
possible benefits of genetic engineering include:
More nutritious food
Tastier food
Disease- and drought-resistant plants that require fewer environmental resources (such as water and fertilizer)
Less use of pesticides
Increased supply of food with reduced cost and longer shelf life
Faster growing plants and animals
Food with more desirable traits, such as potatoes that produce less of a cancer-causing substance when fried
Medicinal foods that could be used as vaccines or other medicines
Answer:
The answer is 'D'- Their arm bones have the same structure, but not function. These are homologous structures.
Explanation:
Homologous structures are those which share a basic common structure but perform different function. The hand of a human performs functions like <em>writing, cutting, washing, chopping</em> etc. The wings of a bat are used for the purpose of <em>flying</em>.
Also, <em>a dolphin's flippers, a bird's wing, a cat's leg</em> are all <u>homologous structures</u>. The structures which are homologous have the following features:
- They share a <em>common origin</em>
- Their <em>anatomy</em> is similar
- They have a <em>similar pattern of development</em>.
Soil creep is the downward movement of soil, on a slope, caused by the force of gravity. A slow deformation of soil material over a prolonged period of time, from pressure and stress. Creep occurs when the friction from materials resisting gravity move against each other. Slope is a key cause of soil creep.
