Phospholipids have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic ends. how does this structure make the phospholipid ideally suited to the selectively permeable structure needed by the plasma membrane?
a. the hydrophobic heads create a boundary that prevents water-soluble polar molecules from crossing the membrane. b. the hydrophobic tails create a boundary that prevents water-soluble polar molecules from crossing the plasma membrane but allows lipid-soluble nonpolar molecules. c. the hydrophobic heads create a boundary that prevents lipid-soluble nonpolar molecules from crossing the membrane. d. the hydrophilic heads create a boundary that prevents water-soluble polar molecules from crossing the membrane.

1. variations in a population of moths allow for some of its members to be able to adapt to environmental changes. the better adapted of the moths will be able to survive the change and thus prevail as the “fittest” of the species. (a) describe three mechanisms in which variation can occur within a species population. (b) explain which mechanism or mechanisms would be responsible for the survival of a population of peppered moths better than white moths in an environment affected by industrial soot. justify your answer.
