Answer:
To begin, in direct relation to plasma membranes, we have the fluid mosaic model, explanation for various observations related to the structure of cell membranes. In this model, there is a lipid bilayer where protein molecules are fixed. The lipid bilayer allows the membrane to achieve elasticity. This model of the cell membrane is how scientists view the functions and parts of the cell membrane. The fluid mosaic model can also serve as an explanation for the phospholipids, cholesterol, proteins, and carbohydrates that make up the membrane. Before delving into the fluid mosaic model, one must first fully understand plasma membranes and the role that they play. The plasma membrane is the membrane in all cells that protects it from the outside environment. The plasma membrane controls materials that come and go from the cell. The membrane is mainly formed of amphiphilic or dual-loving, phospholipid molecules. The hydrophilic part of these molecules is in constant contact with the fluid inside of and surrounding the cell. The phospholipid molecule is made of a three-carbon glycerol base with two fatty acid molecules attached to two of the carbons, and a phosphate-containing group attached to the third one. This arrangement results in a polar charge. The membrane surfaces that face the inside and outside of the cell are hydrophilic. In opposition, the middle of the cell membrane is hydrophobic. Therefore, phospholipids form an effective lipid bilayer cell membrane that divides fluid within the cell from the liquid outside of the cell. In conclusion, fluid mosaic is used by scientists to view the parts of the cell membrane, which has a lot of components that render it non-permeable. (phospholipids, integral protein, peripheral protein, cholesterol, glycoproteins/lipids.)
Explanation:
Idk if this is right but hopefully it helps.
Answer:
Grasshopper: Biotic
Pond water: Abiotic
Dead tree: Abiotic
Soil: Has both but it is better to say Abiotic
Fungus: Biotic
Temperature: Abiotic
Answer:
the competition between organisms is direct.
Explanation:
An example is the aggression display between competing organisms. This applies to both intraspecific and interspecific competition. In intraspecific competition, the competing organisms are of the same species.
B is the answer I strongly believe
Answer:
(B) Boreal owls range over larger areas in regions where food of the sort eaten by small mammals is sparse than they do in regions where such food is abundant
Explanation:
Living beings exhibit various changes in the behavior and niche to make themselves better fitted to the conditions of their habitats.
Boreal owls feed on the other smaller mammals such as mice and shrews. These organisms that serve as their prey are relatively less abundant in the habitat. To ensure the food availability, the boreal owls occupy a larger area so that they can catch their less abundant food organisms.
In the habitats where the prey species of boreal owls are present in a larger number, these owls occupy smaller regions since the food organisms are easily available.
