Answer: (A) They are non polar and soluble

Explanation:

 The oxygen (O2) and the carbon dioxide (CO2) are easily pass through the plasma membrane as both the molecules are soluble and exist in non polar form. These both types of molecules can move through the plasma membrane by the simple diffusion.

By using the simple diffusion the structure of lipid basically allow the oxygen, carbon dioxide and either uncharged substance can easily pass though the plasma membrane.

Therefore, Option (A) is correct.

Explain how the components of skill-related fitness are interrelated and how each is of importance.
svet-max [94.6K]
Skill related fitness components help a person perform certain tasks that involve motion/movement. Sports, recreational activities, and games are examples of activities that involve motor movements. The different skill related components are: agility, balance, coordination, power, reaction time, and speed.

The goal of achieving a certain level of fitness through the skill-related components could help an individual perform better in sports. But in able to do this, one must be particularly aware what exact skill-related component does a particular sport demand to successfully practice and develop the skills it needs. A sport may have combinations of these components at certain levels, and one must make sure that the training that will commence will be very specific to the demands of those particular skills.  
<span>
An example is surfing, where an individual needs both balance and coordination to be able to successfully stand on top of the board. To achieve this, one must specifically train coordinating and balancing activities (e.g. core exercises, planks) to improve on the sport.</span>

Swimming burns more calories per hour than aerobics and cycling.
faltersainse [42]
<span><span><span>Is this a true or false question? If so, the answer would be false. 

While Swimming has many benefits, it does not burn the most calories. It provides a full body work out and goes easy on your joints. However, in order to burn a ton of calories, you need to sweat. Running at 7mph for one hour will help you burn about 700 calories, while swimming at 50 yards-per-minute burns about 550 per hour.
