Answer: 69kg

Explanation:

Let the total weight of the woman be represented by x. Based on the information given, we can derive an equation which will be:

55% of x = 38kg

55/100 × x = 38kg

0.55 × x = 38kg

0.55x = 38kg

Divide through by 0.55

x = 38kg/0.55

x = 69.09099

x = 69kg

Therefore, the woman's total weight is 69kg.

You have a cup of vegetable oil and a vial full of normal phospholipids. What would you predict would happen if you dropped the
tino4ka555 [31]

The vegetable oil is made up of chains of long fatty acids. These long chains of fatty acids are non-polar in nature, i.e, they do not interact through ionic forces rather by covalent forces. The phospholipids are also long chain fatty acids with an ionic head. The mixing of the vial of phospholipid in vegatable oil will lead to the formation of a micelle where the lipophilic ends of the phospholipid will be on the outside and the lipophobic end will be towards the centre of the micelle.

Why do vertebrate embryos show similarities between organisms that do not appear in the adults?
yKpoI14uk [10]

It is believed that this happens because some signals that regulate development are the same between different species and because <span>they share ancient genes. </span>These ancient genes are expressed during a middle "phylotypic stage" of embryonic development for all species.

For example,  human and animal embryos go through very similar stages of early development and share similar features such as tails and gill-like structures. The major difference appears to be how long it takes to reach each of these same stages.
