Answer:

Require a male and a female to reproduce

Explanation:

Gametes are produced by mitosis (not meiosis) and after fertilization a diploid zygote is created. ... It can only divide by meiosis to produce haploid cells once more, which then produce the main adult body. In plants and some algae, there is a multicellular diploid and a multicellular haploid period of the life cycle.

postnew [5]

Tigers are a very important part of the food chain, but sadly they are going extinct. Their habitats are being destroyed, forcing the tigers to kill farmers livestock. In some countries tigers are still used for medicinal purposes, so they are often hunted for their teeth and pelts. Tigers may not seem important but they play a very important part on the food chain. Without these tigers the population of boars and other prey would sky-rocket and that would not be good for the environment.

Match each lipid with its correct components or description.

Mumz [18]

Answer:

(1) glycerophospholipids ⟶ (C) lipids with phosphate-containing head groups

(2) cerebrosides ⟶ (D) fatty acid linked through an amide bond to the sphingosine C(2)-amine

(3) gangliosides ⟶ (B) anionic sphingolipids containing one or more sialic acid residues

(4) sphingolipids ⟶ (A) built on sphingosine

Explanation:

1) Choline (Fig. 1) is a glycerophospholipid. It is a glycerol-based lipid with a phosphate-containing head group.

(2) Galactosylceramide (Fig. 2) is a cerebroside. It contains a fatty acid linked through an amide bond to the sphingosine C(2)-amine

(3) Gangliosides are glycosphingolipids that contain sialic acid. GQ1b (Fig. 3) is one of the most abundant gangliosides in the human brain. The carboxyl group of the sialic acid is in the ionic form.

(4) Sphingomyelin (Fig. 4) is a sphingolipid. It is based on sphingosine, with a phosphocholine head and a fatty acid chain.
