Answer:
Some mutations can be contagious, like infections
Explanation:
A mutation refers to a change in the DNA sequence. Mutations result from a number of causes. It is a permanent alteration in the structure of the DNA.
Not all mutations are harmful. It has been scientifically proven that some mutations make organisms more infectious.
For instance, the new mutant of Corona virus in UK is more infectious than the former strain.
<span>A head-on shot rarely results in a clean kill, ruins meat, and provides a means for the animal to best detect the hunter. It is difficult to achieve this shot, which often results in the deer hearing the gun and running away (thus, detecting the hunter). Moreover, the shot will cause in a waste of a lot of the meat because of the location rendering it unusable and inedible.</span>
Primates are a group of mammals
including humans, apes, monkeys, lemurs and lorises. The physical adaptations
that all primates share are; a fairly generalized skeletal layout that can be
used for many different modes of locomotion, specialized forelimbs, hands and
feet, a larger brain especially the cerebral cortex, an omnivorous diet, stereoscopic
vision that helps in the perception of depth and measuring distance and a small
number of offspring at birth.
The correct answer is option (D) Lipid molecules are nonpolar because they repel water molecules, which are polar.
Lipids are organic compounds made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A glycerol is a organic molecule with three hydroxyl groups and a fatty acid consists of a long hydrocarbon chain attached to a carboxyl group.
Lipids are hydrophobic, nonpolar molecules with no charge on their ends. Waxes are long chain nonpolar lipids. The water repelling property of the waxes prevent the water sticking to it and appear as water beads on its surface. The hydrophobic hydrocarbon tail of the fatty acids are hydrophobic in nature making them repel water. The presence of wax on the surface of the plants and animals protects them from dehydration.
Thus, the nonpolar property of lipids make it insoluble in the polar solvents like water as there is no interaction or sharing of electrons between them.
