The skin acts as a barrier for protecting the body from the harmful things such as sun rays, moisture, cold.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Skin plays an important role in regulating body temperature. It helps to prevent harmful substances enter into our body, and does not allow to loss water in our body. Its form the barrier that prevents harmful substances and microorganisms enter in our body.
Our skin is the protecting layers and against loss of water and blood from our body. Its help us to maintain the constant body temperature. The important role of the skin us to protect our body from the ultraviolet rays.

Hi there!
<u>Electronegativity</u> is the concept of how likely an atom is to attract the shared molecules in one of these bonds to itself. We know the molecule water is made up of two hydrogens and one oxygen. The electronegativity of hydrogen is 2.2, and oxygen 3.4. An <u>ionic bond</u> needs at least a difference in electronegativity of 1.6. As the difference is less than that, we can say that water is a covalent molecule. This then wipes out choice B, because it is not ionic, and C, as we have seen it is actually covalent.
Now, we can see the difference in electronegativity between oxygen and hydrogen is still 1.2. This means that while it is not at the point for there to be an ionic bond, there is still a difference in attraction, where the electrons will tend to favor the oxygen more and 'hang around it' more. As electrons are <u>negatively charged</u><em><u>,</u></em> this means that the oxygen will gain a slightly negative charge. This then makes the molecule polar, because it now has a charge within the molecule. This means we have our answer, choice D.
In terms of hydrophobic molecules - they tend to be ones without a charge. (If you're interested in this kind of stuff, I'd search hydrophobic up, and possibly also look into hydrogen bonds).
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask me any other questions you have about this specific problem.
Might be gene regulation, the process of turning genes on and off in normal development
