The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.
The cell membrane is primarily composed of a mix of proteins and phospholipids
Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes. They a head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (attracted to water) and the tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).
They form a bilayer in which their hydrophilic heads face the aqueous cytosol and extracellular fluid while their hydrophobic tails face away from the cytosol and extracellular fluid.
The lipid bilayer is semi - permeable
Answer:
16 genetically different offspring
Explanation:
This is the case as each parent has the ability to produce 4 uniquely different gametes through independent assortment. With such a scenario where each parent can product 4 uniquely different gametes multiplied by 4 parents, you have 16 offspring. So there's the possibility of producing 16 offspring that are unique.
Answer:
30 minutes
Explanation:
Bacteria reproduce by binary fission, a process by which one parent cell divides to form 2 progeny cells. Because one cell produces 2 progeny cells, bacteria are said to undergo exponential ( logarithmic) growth.
As in the case of staphylococcus aureus, we start with 100 cells , and after 90 minutes number becomes 800 that means , firstly the cells doubled (100 x 2 = 200 ) after 30 minutes. Again after 30 minutes they doubled ( 200 x 2 =400 ) and again after 30 minutes they doubled (400 x 2 = 800). So in 90 minutes 100 cells became 800 cells.
Hence the generation time for S.aureus is 30 minutes.
Answer:
3:1
Explanation:
To find out the phenotypic ratio, we need to do a Punnet Square.
We know that R and I are the dominant alleles that produce red flowers, and r and i are the recessive traits.
<u> ║R ║ r</u>
<u>I ║RI║Ir</u>
<u>i ║Ri║ir</u>
The genotype ratio would be 3 because the dominant traits are present three times (RI, Ir, and Ri) and 1 for the recessive trait since it only appears once in the Punnet Square (ir). In conclusion, the phenotypic ratio form the roses are 3:1
photosynthesis: needs light to happen
Cellular respiration: waste products are carbon dioxide and water.
