The element that is the most abundant in the Earth's crust is oxygen. It makes up 46.6% of the crust. It is followed by silicon, aluminum, iron, etc.
Answer:
C) occurs by simple diffusion because lipids are able to penetrate the hydrophobic fatty acid tails within the plasma membrane
Explanation:
After digestion of lipids, monoglycerides and fatty acids associate with bile salts and phopholipids to form micelles. Micelles are structures that are necessary for the transport the poorly soluble monoglycerides and fatty acids to the surface of the enterocyte. But, micelles cannot be absorbed by epithelial cell, only freely dissolved monoglycerides and fatty acids can. Free fatty acids and monogycerids can just diffuse across the plasma membrane because of their nonpolar nature.
Some absorption (e.g. for cholesterol) may be facilitated by specific transport proteins.
Answer: option C) negatively charged and contains less sodium
Explanation:
In the absence of any stimulus, a neuron is said to be resting. During this time, more positively charged potassium ions (K+) than sodium ions (Na+) occupy the interior of its cell membrane, whereas more sodium ions than potassium occupies the exterior - making the cell membrane to be electrically Polarized with net positive charge outside and a net negative charge inside the cell membrane.
Thus, the interior is negatively charged and contains less sodium ions
Answer:
a. Five-Carbon Sugar and Phosphate
Explanation:
A nucleotide can be defined as an organic molecule which forms the building block of nucleic acid such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).
Basically, nucleotide comprises of the following parts;
1. Nitrogenous base: this includes adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C) which are mainly found in the DNA while adenine (A), guanine (G), uracil (U) and cytosine (C) are found in the RNA.
2. A phosphate group.
3. A penrose sugar: it is either deoxyribose in DNA or ribose in RNA.
The two parts or chemical components of a nucleotide which do not change throughout the structure of DNA are;
I. Five-Carbon Sugar also known as deoxyribose and it has hydrogen on its second carbon.
II. Phosphate: this is the structural backbone that provides support to DNA.
<u>Given:</u>
Present population of bison = 3652
Maximum growth rate = 0.28
<u>To find:</u>
The population of bison after one year.
<u>Solution:</u>
The future population can be calculated with the help of the following formula,

where
is the future population,
is the present population, r is the growth rate and n is the number of years.
On substituting the given values in the formula we get,


Therefore, the population size of bison after one year is 4675. The park does not have to control the population because the growth rate is on an average scale.
