Answer:
The correct answer is D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.
Explanation:
<u>Cholesterol</u> is a steroid lipid and is a constituent of biological membranes. It regulates the <em>fluidity</em> of the membrane (so, option C is not correct). Since cell membranes are composed of another type of lipids, the phospholipids, which form a bilayer, cholesterol distributes between the phospholipid tails and avoids these molecules pack each other forming rigid clusters. Thus, the option which better explains the effect is <em>D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.</em>
Answer: 1. a. logistics model of growth
2. a. environmental conditions
3. b. all limiting factors
4. b. water availability
Explanation:
1. a. logistic model of growth will show the increase in population of a species in accordance with the carrying capacity exponentially but when the population will experience the scarcity of resources it will decline considerably.
Carrying capacity is the total number of members of the population of a species that an ecosystem can sustain by providing resources.
2. b. All environmental conditions which favor the survival of the living beings will contribute to the carrying capacity for example food, water, shelter, and other resources.
3. b. Limiting factor is the one which limit the chances of survival and growth of a particular species in an ecosystem. For example, scarcity of food, here food is the limiting factor.
4. d. A density dependent limiting factor is the one which affects the population of the species based upon the density. The water availability is a density dependent limiting factor because the more the density or abundance of a population more will be the scarcity of water as it will be required by all organisms. So, the species population may experience decline due scarcity of water.
The type of soil that has the least amount of space between the particles is clay.
I would recommend to move the slide away from the end of the viewing part of the microscope, so that if the lab partner were to adjust too much, that the viewing part of the microscope wouldn’t collide and passively crack the slide.
