Is the phosphate group attracted to water (hydrophilic) or is it repelled by water (hydrophobic)

Biology
1 answer:
Finger [1]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The phosphate group is the negatively-charged polar head, which is hydrophilic. The fatty acid chains are the uncharged, nonpolar tails, which are hydrophobic. Since the heads are hydrophilic, they face outward and are attracted to the intracellular and extracellular fluid.

How might water loss relate to the opening and closing of stomata? How does this relate to photosynthesis?
miv72 [106K]

Answer: When the plant has enough water in its cells the guard cells swell up and open the stomata. When the plant isn't getting enough water the guard cells can't swell and the stomata stay closed, so the plant doen's lose water. But if the stomata are closed photosynthesis can't happen and eventually the plant might starve.

9. What are mutations, and how do they increase the genetic variation within a species?
leva [86]

Mutations are changes that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.

They increase the genetic variation within a species because they can create entirely new alleles in a population, random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring.
