Answer:
A phospholipid
a. has both polar and nonpolar regions.
Explanation:
Phospholipids, as amphipathic molecules, consist of a glycerol molecule, two fatty acids, and a phosphate group that is modified by an alcohol. The phosphate group is the negatively-charged hydrophilic (water-loving) polar head, which face outward and are attracted to the intracellular and extracellular fluid. The fatty acids are the uncharged, hydrophobic (water-fearing) nonpolar tails, which face the inside, away from the water and meet in the inner region of the membrane.
Answer:
Mitosis, Meiosis, and both are written below
Explanation:
Mitosis: produces more somatic (body) cells, purpose is for healing and growing, the daughter cells are exact replicas
- This is because mitosis occurs in body cells and is used for growth, so all the daughter cells are the same.
Meiosis: results in sex cells (gametes), results in eggs and sperm, purpose is for creating new individuals (eventually), each daughter cell is different, has 2 separate division stages
- This is because meiosis occurs in gametes and is used in reproduction.
Both: Chromosomes need to replicate before the whole process begins, a form of reproduction
- This is because both are reproducing (they are dividing) and DNA must be replicated so each daughter cell has it.
Answer:
The ability of flight allows them to migrate to different plants if needed. They can only leave a plant and walk away if there is a predator or if their food source's quality has deteriorated, otherwise they remain on their original host plant until then.
Answer:
Answer b) The result of the experiment identifies that the color of the egg donor branch (parent) prevailed and assigned the color of the offspring.
-The female parental branches that were pure green or pure white had children of pure green or pure white, respectively.
- The female parental branches that were variegated allow to obtain the three types of offspring.
It is evident that the chloroplast shows maternal inheritance.
The branch that is pure green will produce eggs with green chloroplasts that will give rise to a pure green offspring. Thus, a pure white branch will have offspring with ovules with an exclusive content of white chloroplasts and will give rise to a pure white offspring.
If a branch is variegated, it is combined, some with only functional chloroplasts, some with only non-functional chloroplasts, and some with a mixture of chloroplasts. All three types of cells can give rise to ovules, leading to green offspring, white offspring, and variegated offspring.
Answer:
Explanation:
Oil sand is an unconventional source of oil. It requires specialized technology and great expertise to win oil from associated waste materials.
The reason why some companies bother about such oil source is explained below;
- Prevailing cost of oil in the world market makes it profitable to extract these oil from sands. A high cost of oil crude oil is a good cause to produce oil form oil sands.
- Development of new technology can catalyze interest in profitable exploration from unconventional sources.
- Economic policies can also favor the production of this source of oil.
- Demand for oil in the market can jack up production levels that can also be met by oil from oil sand.
