Finches adapt to the new conditions such as drought by changing the size, shape and depth of their beaks. Beak morphology varies according to drought conditions. Since after the drought, vegetation dries out and the hard, big, tough seeds remain, only the finches with deep beaks will survive. Finches adapt via their beaks to different foods sources and different local conditions.
Answer:
b. a semi-permeable double layer of phospholipids that have hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails
Explanation:
B is correct as the cell membrane is selectively semi-permeable. It is selectively semi-permeable because this quality allows it to control what can and can't enter the cell, and how it does so.
The cell membrane also has a phospholipid bi-layer comprised of a double layer of phospholipids which have hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tails. This is because the heads are made of phosphate and are polar and are therefore attracted to water (hydrophilic), while the tails are made of lipids (i.e. fats, oils) which do not mix with water and are therefore hydrophobic.
The properties of each phospholipid is also why they form the double layer structure, the hydrophilic heads naturally face outwards into the water and protect the hydrophobic tails on the inside.
Hope this helped!
The question is not complete but it can be answered in general as the plants cannot survive in acidic conditions.
Answer: High acidity is harmful to this type of plant.
Explanation:
The plants that were kept in the higher acidic conditions are less likely to grow in higher acidic conditions.
The plants that were kept in more basic conditions will also not grow properly as the pH of the soil should be neutral, slightly acidic or slightly basic.
The plants that was kept as a control on the pH of 7 will grow the best as the pH is optimum for the growth of the plants.
The conclusion is high acidity is harmful for the life of the plants.
Depending on the organism, the cell can get its energy from the sun (Plant; Photosynthesis) or through ATP energy (Animal).
