the table below that would be best to use in your research. Why did you select this organism?
Model Organism Characteristics

Yeast------------------Single celled, eukaryotic (contains a nucleus)
Fruit fly---------------Multicellular, eukaryotic, invertebrate, arthropod
Zebrafish-------------Multicellular, eukaryotic, vertebrate, fish
Mouse-----------------Multicellular, eukaryotic, vertebrate, mammal


Fruit flies, because they are multicellular like whales
Mouse, because they are mammals like whales
Yeast, because they are eukaryotic like whales
Zebrafish, because they live in the water like whales

Answer:

Because humans are multicellular, eukaryotic (contains a nucleus), vertebrates, and mammals, the best organism to test the synthetic hormones on would be a mouse.

Explanation:

Humans and whales are multicellular (they have many cells) and their cells are eukaryotic (contain a nucleus). They also have a backbone (spinal column), which makes them a vertebrate. Finally, all humans and whales are mammals. Therefore, to get the best results, the testing should be performed on a mouse.

  • Performing the experiment on yeast would give good results for singular-celled organisms, like <em>protozoa</em>.
  • Performing the experiment on a fruit fly would give good results for multicellular invertebrates, like <em>spiders</em>.
  • Performing the experiment on zebrafish would give good results for all fish in general.

Name a structural difference between triglycerides and phospholipids.
amid [387]
Triglycerides are formed by combining glycerol and three fatty acids. Specifically, the hydroxil groups of the glycerol join the carboxyl group of the fatty acid to form ester bonds.

Phospholipids are made up of two fatty acids namely: long chains of hydrogen and carbon molecules and they are attached to the glycerol "head".

Based on their individual structure, the difference between the two is the number of fatty acids they both contain. Triglycerides has three fatty acids while phospholipids only have two.
