Answer:

Water molecules are polar because they have positive and negative ends, rather like little magnets. Most lipids are non-polar (having no charged areas) or only slightly polar, with a very few charged areas. Since lipids have no charged groups, the water molecules have nothing to stick to and dont mix with them.

Hope that helps!

What is the relationship among chromosomes, Gene's and dna
GarryVolchara [31]

DNA, which is a sequence of nucleotides, make up genes. Genes are DNA sequences that  code of a functional protein and are controlled by a promoter region on the DNA.

The Smiths went to dinner at Cheesecake Factory and their bill was $123.75 plus 7.5% sales tax. What is the total bill? Round to
Vikentia [17]

The total bill that was given to the Smiths at the Cheesecake factory was $133.03

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Given that the Smiths bill was $123.75 plus 7.5% sales tax. Hence:

Total bill = $123.75 + Sales tax

Sales tax = 7.5% of bill = 0.075 * $123.75 = $9.28

Total bill = $123.75 + $9.28 = $133.03

The total bill that was given to the Smiths at the Cheesecake factory was $133.03
