Solution:
According to the accepted current theory, known as the fluid mosaic model, the plasma membrane is composed of a double layer (bilayer) of lipids, oily substances found in all cells. The fluid mosaic model was first proposed by S.J. The fluid mosaic model describes the structure of the plasma membrane as a mosaic of components —including phospholipids, cholesterol, proteins, and carbohydrates—that gives the membrane a fluid character. Plasma membranes range from 5 to 10 nm in thickness.
Thus this is the required answer.
I believe the answer is three
Answer:
Pleiotropy
Explanation:
Pleiotropy is a genetic condition in which a single gene conditions the expression of multiple phenotype. There are different types of pleiotropy depending on the underlining mechanism
- <em>gene pleiotropy</em>
- <em>developmental pleiotropy</em>
- <em>selectional pleiotropy</em>
- <em>antagonistic pleiotropy </em>
<em>Phenylketonuria is a disease characterized by increased level of amino acid phenylalanine in the blood. It caused by mutation to the gene responsible for breaking down phenylalanine in the blood. Elevated level of phenylalanine causes other issues such as mental problems, urine coloration and reduction in skin pigmentation. This is a clear case of pleiotropy.</em>
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone, luteinizing hormone (LH for short) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH for short).
EXPLANATION
When your body reaches a certain age, your brain releases a special hormone that starts the changes of puberty. It's called gonadotropin-releasing hormone, or GnRH for short. When this hormone reaches the pituitary gland, it releases two more hormones into the bloodstream: the LH and FSH. Although boys and girls do have these hormones, it depends on their sexual orientation the way these hormones work.
Answer:
1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride solution
Explanation:
The liquid that would cause the largest decrease in the mass of the potato stick would be the one with <u>1 mole per dm3 sodium chloride solution.</u>
<em>The water potential of a solution depends on the molarity of the solution, the higher the molarity, the lower the water potential and vice versa. Hence, a solution with higher molarity has the tendency to osmotically draw more water from the potato stick than a solution with lower molarity.</em>
Therefore, the potato stick will have the largest decrease in mass in 1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride when compared to the 0.5 and 0.1 mole per dm3 solutions.
