What is the effect of the presence of double bonds in plant lipids?

Biology
1 answer:
Anna71 [15]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option C.

C)the tails of plant lipids cannot pack as tightly together as animal ones

Explanation:

The tails of plant lipids cannot pack as tightly together as animal ones because the double bond in plant lipids make the hydrocarbon chains to bend making them no to pack tightly together which cause a reduction in van der Waals interaction between the fatty acids. The length of the double bond also affect the melting point of fatty acids . If the hydrocarbon chain is long, melting point will be high .

Which statement best explains why less energy is available to organisms as a food chain gets longer?
Aleks [24]
<span>This is due to much of the energy that is consumed by lower trophic levels of the food chain/food web being used at that lower level. This energy is stored or used and, therefore, unavailable to the organisms higher up in the chain. As the chain lengthens, less energy is available, usually as a factor of 10 (1/10 of the energy taken in by the level below the consumer is available to the consumer's level, for example).</span>

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

It controls gastrointestinal track.

Explanation:

The enteric nervous system supports the digestive system because enteric nervous system controls gastrointestinal track and there is no control of central nervous system (CNS) in this gastrointestinal track. Our gastrointestinal tract comprise of our mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anus. If abnormality occur in autonomic nervous system which result in negative impact on digestion because autonomic nervous system regulates digestion process.

Brrunno [24]
The list of <span>not correctly paired parasympathetic outflow </span><span>would be:
1. nerves coming from the sacral section innervate lungs and heart
</span><span>2. vagus nerve stimulates many glands in the head like lacrimal and salivary glands
</span><span>

Sacral region is located in the tailbone, near the hip. The location itself too far from lungs and heart, which actually nerved by vagus. 
</span>Lacrimal and salivary glands are nerved by the submandibular (cranial VII) and glossopharyngeal(cranial  IX), not vagus(cranial X)

Choose 1 Transport Mechanism in a cell and make a relatable analogy based on your experience recently. Explain .
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

<u>Active transport across membranes is like refilling an empty soda can after pouring the soda into a cup. It takes effort (energy in the form of ATP) to pour the soda back into the can, it wouldn't typically happen on its own.</u>

Explanation:

Cells use several transport mechanisms to move substances across their plasma membranes. Plasma membranes control all movement of substances through passive transport,  which does not use energy; and active transport which requires chemical energy in the form of ATP.

Active transport moves substances out of cells against their gradients. In the cell, glucose can be transported inwards for respiration. However, because the internal environment is typically concentrated, (and glucose is needed in high amounts) this requires the use of transport enzymes and ATP.
