Cell Membrane Structure Phospholipids are arranged in to layers‚ called the bilayer. They only have 2 fatty acids‚ this is because the third fatty acid is replaced by a negatively charged phosphate group. The phosphate heads are polar‚ in other words attracted to water‚ therefore they are hydrophilic. The lipid tails are non-popular as they’re not attracted to water and therefore known as hydrophobic. When phospholipids are added to the water‚ they rearrange themselves so that the hydrophilic heads

Chapter 5 Membrane Structure and Function Winter wheat is planted in the early fall‚ grows over the winter when the weather is colder‚ and is harvested in the spring. As the temperature drops from fall to winter‚ the makeup of the plasma membrane of winter wheat changes. Unsaturated fatty acids replace saturated fatty acids in the phospholipids of the membrane. Why would colder weather select for the different lipid makeup in the plasma membrane? An abstract in the Canadian Journal of Botany

ENZYME STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS: Enzymes are biological catalysts. They increase the rate of reactions by a factor of between 106 to 1012 times‚ allowing the chemical reactions that make life possible to take place at normal temperatures Definition of enzyme: A protein with catalytic properties due to its power of specific activation is defined as an enzyme. STRUCTURE Enzymes are proteins their function depends on its complexity. The reaction takes place in a small part of the enzyme

Aorta: The aorta carries oxygenated blood to different parts of the body. It distributes blood to all the arteries. Brachiocephalic artery: The brachiocephalic artery carries oxygenated blood away from the heart. It supplies the brain‚ right arm‚ and neck with blood. Common carotid artery: The common carotid artery supplies oxygenated blood to the front of the brain as well as the head‚ neck‚ face‚ and spinal cord. Subclavian artery: The subclavian artery carries blood away from the heart and

P1 [pic] Cell membrane - encloses the contents of the cell and regulates the flow of substances into and out of the cell. Mitochondrion - this feature produces a substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is the carrier of energy in all cells. Centriole - these two features made of hollow tubules play a key role in cell division. Ribosomes - these small‚ granular features of the cell play a key role in the assembly of proteins. Chromosome - During cell division‚ DNA‚ the
