Answer:
d. Hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other.
Explanation:
The term “hydrophobic effect” is associated with the spontaneous tendency of macromolecules, such as proteins, to prefer a conformation in an aqueous medium, with hydrophobic groups facing the interior of the mac romolecule, favoring attractive intramolecular interactions, and hydrophilic groups exposed on the surface, for maximize interactions with water molecules in the medium. This is because the hydrophobic molecules are attracted to each other, allowing them to turn inward.
1) This is a definition.
2) Protons are given by the bottom number (since atomic number = number of protons).
3) Neutrons = (mass number)-(atomic number), which are the top and bottom numbers, respectively.
4) Nuclear fusion involves combining two things together, which is only reflected by the last option.
5) This is a fact.
6) This is a fact.
7) This is a fact.
8) This is a fact.
9) The correct option is the explanation.
Active transport is the moving of molecules across the membrane of the cell against the concentration gradient with the use of ATP.
Low to high concentration. Concentration gradient is the diffusion (movement of molecules from regions of low concentration) from high to low with the gradient. Active transport is from low to high, against the gradient.
