59:10 A chemical has been found to harm the same components in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Which components are those
MrMuchimi
DNA, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes.

Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have structures in common. All cells have a cell membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA. The cell membrane, or plasma membrane, is the phospholipid layer that surrounds the cell and protects it from the outside environment.

What are some facts about fertilization?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Internal Fertilization: Mammals,birds and reptiles in them the mode of fertilization is internal

External Fertilization: Amphibians and fishes used external fertilization.

Egg laying Animals;Birds,reptiles and some mammals platypus lays eggs.

Explanation:

Fertilization is a process in which a female egg (Ovum) and male egg (sperm) unite to form a zygote.A zygote is a fertilized egg which grows within an embryo.The process of fertilization is important in eukaryotes such as animals, humans,birds and plants. Fertilization divides a cell into many daughter cells by the process of mitosis and meiosis.It doubles the chromosome numbers.Fertilization are of two types internal and external.

why would having both polar and nonpolar properties in a protective boundary be advantageous for the cell?
Reika [66]

Explanation:

The polar nature of the membrane’s surface can attract polar molecules, where they can later be transported through various mechanisms. Also, the non-polar  region of the membrane allows for the movement of small non-polar molecules across the membrane’s interior, while preventing the movement of polar molecules, thus maintaining the cell’s composition of solutes and other substances by limiting their movement.

Further explanation:

Lipids are composed of fatty acids which form the hydrophobic tail and glycerol which forms the hydrophilic head; glycerol is a 3-Carbon alcohol which is water soluble, while the fatty acid tail is a long chain hydrocarbon (hydrogens attached to a carbon backbone) with up to 36 carbons. Their polarity or arrangement can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties i.e. they are amphiphilic. Via diffusion, small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds.

Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer, this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.

Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers. Carrier proteins and channel proteins are the two major classes of membrane transport proteins; these allow large molecules called solutes (including essential biomolecules) to cross the membrane.
