Fat is less soluble in water compared to phospholipids.
This is because, fat is made up of three molecules of fatty acids which are not polar in nature at all, thus they mixed very poorly with water.
Phospholipids on the other hand has its molecules divided into two distinct regions, the head and the tail region. The head region is hydrophillic and it is polar in nature, that is, it mixes well with water. The tail region is made up of the fatty components and it is hydrophobic.
Because of this difference in structure, phospholipid will dissolve better in water.
Answer:
The correct answer is option E.
Explanation:
The deep-colored, water-soluble proteins, which are mainly found in Rhodophyta and cyanobacteria are known as phycobiliproteins. They captivate the light energy and then pass it to the chlorophyll at the time of photosynthesis.
They are comprised of proteins and are covalently attached through cysteine amino acid chromophores known as phycobilins. Thus, the correct answer is option E.
Answer:
Explanation:
Osmosis is the process in which the molecules of a solvent move from a region of low concentration to a region of higher concentration through a semi-permeable barrier.
While eating the chips, <u>the salt content from the chips makes the surrounding solution of the cells to have an increase in salt concentration causing an hypertonic solution</u>. An hypertonic solution is a solution that has more solute (salt) than the (solute in a) cell. <u>This increase in salt concentration around the cells causes the cells to release water to neutralize the high salt concentration in the solution around the cell (in order to maintain homeostasis)</u> which causes dehydration in the individual and hence making the individual to be thirsty. <u>The body attempts to maintain balance by passing this excess salt out of the body in the form of urine hence the reason for the dark colour in the urine </u>(because if the body doesn't rid itself of the high salt concentration, the cells could shrink and die as a result).
Answer: B) are excited by light that falls in the center of their receptive field.
Explanation:
There are two types of bipolar cells present in the retina which are differentiated on the way the centres of their receptive fields respond to light. The names of bipolar cells are ON-centre and OFF-centre.
If a light fall at the centre of the receptive field of a bipolar cell, it will experience an exciting effect on that cell, resulting in it being depolarized, it is an ON-center cell.
Hence, the correct option is B.
