Answer: The lipid bilayer forms a barrier to molecules because it consists of closely-packed molecules with long nonpolar hydrocarbon chains.
Explanation:
Answer:
Proteins are responsible for the <u>mass </u>and <u>fat </u>of much of our bodies (and other organisms). The instructions for making protein are encoded in <u>DNA</u>. These genes provide the sequence of building blocks known as <u>nucleotides</u>. This string of amino acids then folds into different shapes. The structure of proteins determines what a <u>molecule </u>can do. Proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.

Answer:
125 molecules
Explanation:
Between two amino acids , one water molecule is eliminated and a peptide bond is formed. When 250 amino acids are joined to form a polypeptide , 125 molecules of water will be removed.
That is, 250/2=125
Answer:
(2) 988.5 mb.
Explanation:
The air pressure descends as we ascend. In other words, they are inversely proportional.
The air pressure descends as we ascend the mountain because the air molecules that are above us in high altitudes are fewer than the number of air molecules that are above us in the base of the mountain. So, the exerted pressure of the molecules on ourselves is lower in high altitudes.
Due to the reason mentioned above, we can deduce that the only correct option is option number two since the other ones show increasing or the same pressure, which is not possible as we ascend.
