Which statement is not true? A) Lipids are found in cell membranes. B) Lipids are soluble in organic solvents. C) There are many
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

D.all lipids contain fatty acids.

Explanation:

A.Lipids are fats, like oil, that are insoluble in water. ... The most abundant class of lipid molecule found in cell membranes is the phospholipid. The phospholipid molecule's polar head group contains a phosphate group. It also sports two nonpolar fatty acid chain groups as its tail.

B.The simplest definition is a lipid as any molecule that is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. Most lipids are soluble to some extent in organic solvents such as hexane, ether, chloroform or benzene. They constitute a complex collection organic compounds that include fatty acids, (A,D, E and K).

C.There are two major types of lipids- simple lipids and complex lipids. Simple lipids are esters of fatty acids with various alcohols. For eg., fats and waxes.

D.Not all lipids have fatty acids. The operational definition of a lipid is a biomolecule is that is sufficiently hydrophobic to be more soluble in an organic solvent than in water. The common theme to their structures is a high percentage of hydrocarbon character.

E.Most lipid hormones are steroid hormones, which are usually ketones or alcohols and are insoluble in water. Steroid hormones (ending in '-ol' or '-one') include estradiol, testosterone, aldosterone, and cortisol. ... Amino acid-derived hormones and protein hormones are water-soluble and insoluble in lipids.

How would an x-ray technician position the camera to produce a frontal view of a patient's abdominal cavity?
leva [86]

Answer: Option A. "In front of the patient, pointing at his navel"

Explanation:

The X-ray of abdominal cavity is known as Abdominal x-ray. It has same principle as X-ray and uses ionizing radiation to take pictures of inner parts of abdominal cavity such as intestine, stomach, liver and spleen. it is used to diagnose patients with vomiting, unexplained pain, and nausea.

While diagnosing  patient's abdominal cavity, x-ray technician position the camera in front of the patient, pointing at his navel in order to produce a frontal view of abdominal cavity.

Talking about a x-ray machine, it is a compact apparatus which can be taken to the patient in a hospital bed or the emergency room. The x-ray tube connects flexible arm which further extends towards the patient and an x-ray film holder (image recording) plate is placed under the patient.

The technologist will ask the patient to take position on the x-ray table or bed and will position x-ray machine over the abdominal area of the patient, in order to take the frontal view of abdominal cavity. The patient will be asked to hold their breathe to get a clear picture. The technician will turn on the x-ray machine that allows  x-ray machine  to produce a small burst of radiation which passes through the abdominal area and records the frontal view of  patient's abdominal cavity. As a result, soft tissue shows up in shades of gray and air appears black while bones appear white on the x-ray, through which patient can be diagnosed.

Hence, the correct option is A "In front of the patient, pointing at his navel".

ElenaW [278]
The best answer is B. The endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplasts have striking similarities to bacterial cells: 1. they have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell. 2. Both organelles use their DNA for to produce many proteins and enzymes required for function. 3. They are both surrounded by a double membrane. 4. They reproduce just the way bacteria do, replicating their own DNA and directing their own division.
