Answer:

Lipids are hydrophobic because they do not mix with water. Lipids are made of long chains of carbon and hydrogen. ... The partial charges on the water molecule cannot interact with the neutral lipid molecule and thus water and lipids do not mix.

Round (R) seed shape is dominant to wrinkled (r) seed shape in pea plants. If an RR plant is crossed with an rr plant, what is t
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. All round seeds

Explanation:

If an RR plant is crossed with an rr plant than all the phenotype will produce round seed and the frequency of the Round seed plant to wrinkled seed plant would be 4:0.

                       R     R

                  r   Rr    Rr

                  r   Rr    Rr

So all the phenotypes will be heterozygous dominant for the round seed which means that all phenotypes will have a single dominant allele for round seed which is enough to express round seeds in the phenotypes.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct option that does not describe the science of nutrition would be <u>that many studies have been conducted on the association between certain types of cancer and diet and, therefore, these links are well-understood</u>.

While some degrees of understanding exists, it is not 100% certain that there is a cause-effect relationship between these two factors, and a large percentage of cases of cancer are caused by factors that cannot be controlled.</em>

The correct option is, therefore, A.
