Answer:

Changes is macro molecule structures are expected among other things

Explanation:

If there were a wold that was based on a small non-polar lipid instead of water there would be massive changes to proteins and carbohydrates. Basic changes would include solubility, catabolism and metabolism and absorption in organisms.  

Many water soluble material would no longer be mobile because there is a lack of media in which to dissolve. However other fat soluble material will be highly mobile and well absorbed. Sessile organism such as trees that depend on nutrients that are dissolved in water for absorption will not longer have this ability.

Finally, abiotic factors such as rainfall and rock weathering will be influenced. The freezing of polar caps and melting of ice will no longer be occurring and there will be an influx of an medium that does not evaporate. Because of this there will be the cessation to the water cycle and probably the end of this life on earth without quick evolutionary and adaptive changes.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: Components of cell junctions

Explanation:

<u>Fibroblasts are cells located in the dermis,</u> responsible for the formation and remodeling of tissue. They synthesize fibers and maintains the extracellular matrix of the tissue of animals. So, t<u>he extracellular matrix is a structurally complex entity that surrounds and supports the cells found in tissues</u>.

A cell junction a structure that exists within the tissues of animals and they consist of protein complexes that provide contact between cells or between a cell and the extracellular matrix. So if the cells do not appear flattened and do not attach to the extracellular matrix, then there is a problem with the components of cell junctions, which are mostly proteins as it was said before. And since proteins are coded by genetic information stored in DNA, then if there is a mutation in any of those genes, the fibroblast will fail to attach because the protein of the cell junction will be abnormal.

What feature of both true mosses and ferns makes it most surprising that they can survive for many generations in dry deserts? U
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Desert biomes are characterised by the presence of the arid conditions or with few or less amount of rainfall.

The plant groups called the bryophytes and pteridophytes are dependent on the water for their fertilization which allows completing their life cycle.

In the desert conditions provided in the question, the mosses and ferns survived for many generations as these plant groups produced sperms with flagella which helped the sperms to swim in the water provided by the 10-inch rainfall per year and reach the female gamete and fertilize the egg cell.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
