A lunar eclipse only happens during the full moon phase. It is where the moon moves in the earth’s shadow.
Answer;i think its the first one i'm not to sure
Answer:
The correct answers: A, B, C.
Explanation:
- Lipid bilayer is made of two layers of phospholipids, where each phospholipid molecule is made up of a glycerol which is attached to a phosphate group and two fatty acid chains by ester bonds.
- The phosphate groups being hydrophilic are directed towards the outside of the bilayer. The fatty acid chains (saturated or unsaturated) being hydrophobic are directed towards the inside of the bilayer.
- These fatty acid chains are not static and are capable of moving laterally in the bilayer, giving the bilayer the characteristics of fluidity.
- The fluidity is mainly provided by the presence of unsaturated (with one or multiple double bonds) fatty acid. The presence of double bonds results in the fatty acid molecules to have a bent shape and this increases the area occupied by each such unsaturated fatty acid molecule. The free area available allows the lateral movement of the fatty acid molecules.
- According to option A, long chain fatty acids tend to occupy more space within the lipid bilayer. This reduces the free space available for the movement of the lipid molecules.
- According to option B, saturated fatty acids are those which lacks any double bonds and the carbon atoms are attached by single bonds. Therefore, these molecules are straight in shape and occupy maximum area in the lipid bilayer. This reduces the space available for the free movement of fatty acid molecules, thereby making the membrane less fluid in nature.
- According to option C, cholesterol is a type of lipid molecule. They remain interspersed in between lipid molecules. At high temperatures, they prevent the lipid molecules from getting excessively fluid by filling in the gaps in between the lipid molecules and at very low temperatures they prevent the stiffening of the lipid molecules by getting associated with each other. At room temperature, they stabilise the lipid molecules between whom they remain interspersed and also reduce the free space in between them thereby reducing the lateral movement. This way they reduce the fluidity.
Answer:
d.organisms from the past
Explanation:
Fossils document the existence of now-extinct species, showing that different organisms have lived on Earth during different periods of the planet's history. They can also help scientists reconstruct the evolutionary histories of present-day species.
The sucrose moved in sink by active transport.
<h3>What is active transport?</h3>
Active transport is a type of transport in which the cell expends energy to move solutes against their concentration gradients. The sodium-potassium pump is an example of active transport. Active transport differs from passive transport in that the cell does not expend energy.
In this case, the sucrose moves from companion cells in sink elements by active transport. This reduces the water potential of the sink element by osmosis, which increases the hydrostatic pressure.
