Lycopodium is a family of fern-allies .
They are mostly a flowerless plants with widely branched, with little and simple,
needle-like like leaves that
cover the branches thickly and stem while Equisetum usually called horsetail, snake
grass because it more like a tail of a horse and its the only living genus in Equisetaceae,
a family of vascular
plants that reproduce by spores rather than
seeds.
Answer:
c. a high percentage of very long chain saturated fatty acids
Explanation:
Saturated fatty acids do not have double bonds (they are saturated with hydrogens), so their tails are relatively straight. Unsaturated fatty acids, on the other hand, contain one or more double bonds, which often produces an elbow or bend. (You can see an example of an unsaturated bent tail in the phospholipid structure diagram that appears at the beginning of this article.) Saturated and unsaturated phospholipid fatty acid tails behave differently when the temperature drops:
- At colder temperatures, the straight tails of saturated fatty acids can be tightly bound, producing a dense and quite rigid membrane.
- Phospholipids with unsaturated fatty acid tails cannot bind so closely due to the bent structure of their tails. For this reason, an unsaturated phospholipid membrane remains fluid at lower temperatures than a saturated phospholipid membrane.
Most cell membranes contain a mixture of phospholipids, some with two saturated (straight) tails and others with a saturated tail and an unsaturated (folded) tail. <u>Many organisms — fish, for example — can adapt physiologically to cold environments by changing the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in their membranes, that is, increasing the proportion of saturated long-chain fatty acids.</u>
In addition to phospholipids, animals have an additional component in their membrane that helps them maintain fluidity. Cholesterol, another type of lipid that is embedded between the membrane phospholipids, helps decrease the effects of temperature on fluidity.
Answer:
If you want to improve the amount of the recycling in your city, Tom need to implement a lot of initiatives and the following on this question isn't the right way to do it.
Explanation:
Whether Tom wants to improve the amount of recycling in his city, he need not to ban all plastics. What he must to do is to take plastics from houses, companies, supermarkets and other places that use this kind of material and recycle them, and change them in other products to back to the society or community. Besides recycle, he need to contact the local authority to make recycling campaigns. That's the reason to close grocery stores on Sundays isn't the right way to do in this situation. If he are wishing to close all landfills, isn't the right option to do, because you have to implement a good landfills and make it works in a right way, because is important to have an sustainable landfill without creating environmental pollution for the community, local population and the planet. But to do all of these things explained above, you have to obtain investiment and money throughout the authorities, governments or maybe businessmen from big companies.
Answer:
DNA replication is faster and microscopic in size, smaller than eukaryotic cell.
Explanation:
The three domains of life are archaea, bacteria and eukarya. The two main biological division are prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The organisms that lacks the complete nucleus are included in prokaryotes.
The DNA replication is quite fast in prokaryotes as compared to eukaryotes because of small genome size, transcription is coupled with the translation and no post transcription modification is present in prokaryotes. The size of prokaryotes is quite small as compared with eukaryotes and shows the fast rate of diffusion.
Thus, the answer is option (a) and (c).
