Suppose a highly positive ion was attracted to a membrane. At what location would that most likely occur? a) the head of a lipid b) the tail of a lipid c) the nonpolar portion of a protein d) the double bond located within a lipid

A highly positive ion was attracted to a membrane and their locations is explained in details.

Explanation:

1.

The Head of a lipid is hydrophilic (polar). This cover can be bearing negative or positive charges. This is that charge that creates the head hydrophilic(communicate with water(a polar molecule, including negative and positive unfair charges).

The tail is hydrophobic (non-polar). This part doesn't include any charge that enhances hydrophobic. (Does not combine with water.

Now a positive ion can be brought only to electron-rich stations. We cannot say that this situation is forever the hydrophilic part.

A dual bond is an electron-rich situation. So the ion will be drawn to the dual bond place of a lipid.

2.

A conveyor that needs energy is active transport.

3.

The use of a membrane is to stop the particles and ions from passing crosswise it openly. So through the membrane, in an active carrier, we require input energy to transfer molecules beyond it.

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
