A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer, which is a double layer of phospholipids. Each phospholipid has a hydrophilic phosp

hate head and a hydrophobic lipid tail. These phospholipids are not chemically bound to one another, but rather maintain their structure due to the fact that the lipid tails do not like water. They’re hydrophobic. If they all buddy up, then they can all stay dry. (See the figure below.) What is the function of the phospholipid bilayer?

Answer:

The correct answer is "Shine Dalgarno sequence".

Explanation:

  • A consensus originally characterized throughout the mRNAs to Escherichia coli seems to be the Shine-Dalgarno chain.  
  • Proteins manufactured through sequences comprising unique sequences became generated more gradually or slowly than similar proteins encoded of separate but interchangeable codons from genes, researchers observed.

Answer:

Women who carry one copy of the mutated gene still have normal color vision because they have another copy, which is not mutated, in the other X chromosome that will be the dominant one. As a result, the women are carriers of the mutated gene but not color blind.

Explanation:

Colorblindness is a sex-linked mutation. A woman has two X chromosomes, while a man has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. The mutated gene that causes color blindness is on the X chromosome, and it is OPN1LW. So if a woman has one mutated OPN1LW in one of her two X chromosomes, the OPN1LW gene in the other X chromosome will be the dominant one stopping the woman from being colorblind.

In the case of men, as they only have one X chromosome, if there is a mutation on the OPN1LW in the X chromosome, the men will be colorblind because there is no extra copy of the gene, as it is in women.
